And when I said two minnows, I possibly meant three

Doing a little creek research, found these guys in Southern Ontario, but cant tell the difference, some help would be greatly appreciated

What about a bluntnose and an emerald shiner?

The third photo is likely a bluntnose, with the basicaudal spot and the tightly defined lateral spots.

Perhaps small golden shiners for the first two?

I'd guess 1 and 2 are golden shiner, 3 might be spottail shiner (if it's not a bluntnose minnow). Spread fins would help with ID, and a close-up of the head/mouth.

1 & 2 appeared to be a golden shiner and 3 appeared to be a bluntnose minnow
