Can anyone help with a fish ID? Caught this guy on a small ice fishing jig cast out along the FA today. Is this a Golden Shiner? Would be great as they are somewhat hard to source locally from what I've experienced so far. Caught this guy along with a few creek chubs and a nicer sized GSF (6-7"). There is a "breach" in the embankment around the pond where the old overflow used to be. The previous owners wanted the cattails out and have it dug out to remove them and never replaced that section (about 2-3' lower than the rest of the dam), so the creek to the north floods in here. I'm assuming that's where the creek chubs (and probably several of the other species) are coming from.

Mommy pulled the little man by just in time for him to handle his first creek chub. Surprisingly it went back in relatively unscathed laugh .
