Caught some of these in my minnow trap, not sure what they are, make good live bait. Anyone know what these are? Thank you!

Top one as, 1/4ac says, is likely a mosquito fish or maybe one of the topminnows. Lower fish looks a lot like a small bluegill that has noticeably large eyes that strongly suggests it is stunted and not getting enough food for good growth.

My 2 cents.. Top looks like a Golden top minnow and the bottom is either a stunted BG as suggested above, or possibly a RES. I keep some of both in my aquarium over winter and it's obvious the RES have a bit larger eye than the BG do.. Absolutely no data to back that up, :-)) Just an observation on my part.

The top one is, most likely, a mosquito fish (Gambusia) and the bottom one is some kind of panfish (BG, HBG, or RES).
