TJ, these exist in SW NE lakes I frequent. I've netted them at night in just a few inches of water and I will be 100% honest, I had never identified them as Red shiner. Now I know.
I have never seen a source listed for this species but I know where to capture some but I can see it will be extremely labor intensive.
Nothing good ever comes easily, right?
Thanks Bill for the great info.
I might also add I was able to determine the female is a more pale silver vs the male having the blueish tint with much more obvious red to orange fins.
