Do you guys have brown bullheads up there? I only suggest that because of the fins going noticeably out to the sides. If the fins seem to be located at the base of the fish, that's a good place to start. If you see it again, try catching it on an earthworm. Just let it lay on bottom. Cut bait is good too. It seems you have a neighbor who isn't so neighborly. Sure hope you don't have bullheads.
