I would say you saw a carp or drum, though 3' would be large for a creek fish.

the 3 foot fish wasn't the redeye/rockbass. I'm just trying to figure out what I'm actually catching. I think it's rock bass...at least based on the link someone posted earlier.
The big fish a different question all together.
it was a very long but still full bodied fish that I saw...i've seen several gar in this little section of the harpeth but they are very slender. This fish wasn't slender like that.
