What Kind Of Fish Are These ?

[ZRT-42]

Was checking out my lake by my house in South Florida/Broward County area and saw these little guys, the bass constantly eat them. I tried to look it up, but was not 100% sure  on the species. I threw in my GoPro cause I figured that would do better than a picture. Also what type of lures would you guys throw as far as crankbaits/spinnerbaits/buzzbaits/ colors ect.... I'm new to using those kind of lures and have not had much luck with them. Thanks for any info 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At the 3:25 mark you can see a bass even checks out my Gopro

And here's a video of the bass hanging out right off the bank

Try a white spinnerbait or a pearl magnum fluke, weightless

Some type of tilapia.  Catching them, good luck, in 10 years I've never caught one.  They feed on insect larva and small crustaceans, I've had them nip at senko and swim after a crappie jig but they don't seem to strike.  They are pretty small anyway, try targeting blue tilapia, they are catchable but difficult and can reach 8lbs or more, they give a good fight.

Hopefully op was talking about catching bass that are feeding on these; not catching the Talapia. The baits I referred to would imitate the Talapia and hopefully catch bass feeding on them.

Thanks for the information, I appreciate it. Yeah I want to catch bass not these guys. The thing is that the bass target them all the time in my Lake and I want some kind of lure to mimic them.

My little brother actually catches these guys with a small hook and bread. I've tried to use em as live bait but the turtles always get em first.
