Default Minnow ID

Smallest fish yet, took a McGinty off the surface as it landed. Wondering what species of minnow it is.

Thanks

Thanks, after looking up shiners I think it might be a redside shiner.

It is a redside shiner. Nice catch! Where did you catch it? They are only supposed to be in the upper Peace basin.
