Looks like a minnow to me, could be a fresh water hearing too "only a guess"

how about a little more detail, lenth would be a great help.

It was about half a pound and one foot long. I think it is a silver carp. We steamed it and it tasted like that. It had a lot of bones.

That, my friend is a peamouth.

Go to this site and have a peek... [url "http://www.pikeminnow.org/How%20to%20tell%20a%20peamouth.html"]http://www.pikeminnow.org/How%20to%20tell%20a%20peamouth.html[/url]

Or just google "peamouth" and switch to images.

The first one I caught I thought it was a squawfish. I am getting better, but I still have trouble with fish ID.

oh no =) while almost any fish is edible if you are starving, that one is not standard table fair! You are now the only person I have ever heard of eating one of those
