I recently went on a trip to Georgia and needed help identifying a fish.I found this little fish that was very fast but don’t know what it is. Tried catching him with my hand but he was too fast. Maybe some sort of goby I don’t know. Also caught a catfish don’t know either maybe a channel

The second fish ,in the water, is a Northern Hogsucker, which is relatively common. The first could possibly be a juvenile Blue catfish, judging by the shape of its dorsal fin. With the lighting it's hard to tell. It looks yellowish, which if it was then it is a Channel catfish, which is common here in Georgia. Would be nice if you had a side view, rather than a top view of the head, also a picture of the anal fin would be useful for identifying the species more accurately.
