Yep, they look pretty chunky and should provide a decent meal.

Do you have a spot to seine any nearby creeks? Seining my creek almost always turns up several species that I DO NOT notice, even when closely observing the creek.

Sorry Rod, had my notifications turned off so I never saw your post. I have a couple nearby that drain into and out of a large marsh area that seems it would be good mudminnow habitat. My 4 (soon to be 5) year old is as crazy for that stuff as I am so we'll see if we can find anything once the water warms a bit this spring.
