Sacramento pike minnow. I’ve caught many. Good bait for 50 lb Strippers

I was reading you can make money catching them as they are considered invasive. Is that still the case in California? I’ve read some tagged fish can be worth$500

I don't believe it's a pike minnow, looks like the minnows that were sold when I was a kid. They were replaced by golden shiners. They stopped selling regular shiners because they were becoming a problem in some waters. The thought was golden shiners wouldn't reproduce. The regular shiners were better bait.
