Thanks for posting the pic Steve. I have actually snagged a few fingerling bass on those mini rooster tails and they look like bass. This guy was different but the mouth does look like it could be an LMB. I am going to build and set a couple of fish traps and see what starts showing up. A friend of mine said it is a shad but the solid black line running the length of the body doesn't really look like any pictures I saw. I am sure it was not an HSB - I've caught tons of those in lakes and would recognize it even in micro size.
