No trout to speak of here where I'm at by the way (San Jose). Wife caught one rainbow up in the mountains yesterday.

Looks somewhat like a Redhorse minnow. But not sure if they have them in NM.

Chub. They will eat your nymph at the end of a drift every time.

The cats here in WV love them chubs too. Im not sure if its the same species of chub, but we call em creek chubs. They get pretty hefty.
