They call them storm minnows in south Louisiana

Goby was my first thought, but had never caught one here

That article says a storm minnow is a goby

Storm minnow. They make great trout bait

Agreed Violet Goby. Color and the "chevron" patterns give it away.

Compare the pics. Not the same fish. Goby lives in a hole in the sand.

Looks too thin to be a storm minnow

We call them Slippery Dicks. It's a type of Wrasse. They are snook candy.

Some kind of goby fish. Definitely not a storm minnow though.

It's a Wrasse.

Bait

My vote goes to it being a goby, not a wrasse.
Posted on 6/21/17 at 5:46 pm to Bullredbf
That's a highfin goby. Head is way too big to be a wrasse.
