FISH ID FROM TRAP.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It is NOT a LMB. Not even close. I am almost 100% that this is a fathead minnow. The dorsal and anal fins look too offset to ba a killi or topminnow. I am going to go with fathead. Look up some pics of a fathead minnow and match them up.

Damn thats a hotly debated minnow! LOL. I won't guess unless there are better pics, but I agree with the direction of the conjecture.
 
It's some type of killifish..I remeber.I had one...Fugupuff told me what kind but I forgot. :nilly: :nilly:
 
I just looked it up ( fundulus seminolis ) and it looks like a very close resemblence to that. And do killifish travel in schools?

could fundulus seminolis be found up in the north?? fathead minnows don't have teeth like sandpaper...

He was referring to bass having sandpaper teeth :popcorn:
 
i dont think its fundulus seminolis does your specimen have spots. And the pics u have dont have a spooned tail, more of a bass or sun fish/minnow tail. Please get better pics. Put him in ur palm and lay him under light.
 
I kinda put him in my oscar tank for a little and hmm, he got a little mugged up so he is hinding under my stuff right now so yeah...i might have made him into food. Do bass travel in many? Because i was laying a new trap in and there was a looooot of fish circling it and stuff...

Fundulus seminolis are confined to FL, but there are some killies that have the ssame general body style. The most common and widespread being Fundulus diaphanus. I still believe this is what it is.
