One of the lakes near me has these baitfish in it and was wondering what they were? They are pretty large, 5/6 inches long.

Never can catch them though, oddly found a school of them milling around in a shallow cove. Never saw them before but when the moon is full i see them popping on the surface and usually don't catch many fish! They are in a relatively shallow water treatment lake that i shore fish.

It looks similar but not the same as the one's that you buy for bait?
It actually has a bright yellow stripe on it ? In the picture the bait was already kinda stiff and dried but you can still see it faintly. Not sure what kind of herring it is and what are the ones we buy for bait?

PS, Tip of the day: DO NOT leave them in a cooler in a hot garage for a week!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEY!
