Not a carp. Some kind of sucker it seems. Caught on Lake Toho, FL. No barbells were present on its mouth. Most suckers that I have seen have an elongated dorsal fin.
Need an ID, this is truly a mystery fish

I assure you its not a chub. Chub have very tiny scales and look practically scaleless. This must be some kind of sucker I would assume.
Lake Chubsucker, they are only one species that could be found in Florida. Quite common forage fish species.
This isn't a chub but actually a chubsucker. All American chub species do not have a sucker mouth, only chubsuckers have a sucker mouth. There are no chub species presented in Lake Toho, Florida and Florida do not have any chub species.
