Golden Shiner?

The species you are holding in your hand is a golden shiner.

I may have caught one of those in a cast net one time, I remember three of us saying we had never seen the species on the TN river and unused it for bait. Can’t remember if I caught anything with it but that was the only time I remember seeing one except when I was in Florida. This was in chickamauga lake, not sure if they live there in numbers or not
