Is it the desert sucker; Pantosteus clarki?

Am I even allowed to jump in halfway?

The one you have there is a bit more colorful than this one.

 

[oscarcrazy]

Sure you are.
Not a desert sucker, real close though.....

longnose sucker?

longnose sucker?

bingo bango

 

[Gator]

this is probably an easy one here.

It appeared to be highfin carpsucker, however i cant see what shape of the sucker's mouth so I can ID the carpsucker.

River carpsucker?
Quillback?

My guess: River carpsucker.

I'm going to say hifin carpsucker based on the dorsal, but I agree, it's an easier ID if you can see the mouth...might also be a quillback...

 

[Gator]

lol you both got it on your #2 guesses Quilback Carpiodes cyprinus

 

[kafiltafiisch]

i would have nailed that if i realized there was a new pic darn!
