Hi

 

Can someone pls help/confim these ids.    http://imgur.com/a/FYJxq

Caught in a small creek in Burlington, Ontario Canada off of Lake Ontario. 

 

I believe the first one is a striped shiner.  (Or could it be a common shiner?) 

 

And the second one a white sucker?  (I'm guessing on this one)

 

thanks!

I would agree that your first fish looks very much like a Striped Shiner.

 

Second fish looks more like a Nocomis Chub to me... i'm guessing River Chub.

 

Peterson's is great for this kind of ID... particularly since you took such nice clear photos.

Michael is right, as is his wont.
