That's mostly what we caught as kids fishing in the South Saskatchewan, along 
with suckers, which are much uglier btw, and at least we thought it was fun.  
As long as the weather was nice you could have found any of the our 
neighborhood kids down by the weir.  Alas we always thought our fish were 
suspect and never ate any type of fish from the river.  It never really 
mattered to any of us what they said, we never trusted them.
