Nice. What kind of fish do you think that is that you got on the side of the fillets, in your first pic?

My guess is a carplet. I just got a few that size down at Utah Lake with a cast net. Young carp grow fast but are a big part of the predators' diets until they get too big in the late fall. Biggest shad from this year's hatch might be 4-5". Most are much smaller.
By the way, it sounds like you have been studying your lessons in "fligonometry". You did well, Grasshoppah.
