Just need confirmation that it is not a Fathead and indeed a Bluntnose. Thanks so much! Caught in a coldwater stream in Ontario, Canada.

Your fish has a complete lateral line. I would call it a bluntnose. Are they both supposed to be present in this drainage?

The complete lateral line was what had me pretty certain on Bluntnose too. Both are present, yes.
Body shape and patterning also more c/w bluntnose than fathead (which tend to be a bit stockier in my experience).
I'll go with Bluntnose then! Thank you both!

My bluntnose comes from pressing it against aquarium glass at the Newport Ky aquarium!
