It aint no catfish
Might be A baby White Bass ?
it's hard to tell length & thickness. But, from the eyes, mouth, & visable coloration (blue-green back & solid white belly) ... it would appear to be a White Crappie. Looks to be fresh out of a cooler of ice ... or possibly from deep, dark, or cold water ... what with the stripes/specks not being visable. The elongated nature of its length, might indicate it being an old, but stunted growth White Crappie ... possibly from a body of water that does not have much in the way of an ample foodsource. It's too long in stature, to be a Black Crappie. IMHO
... cp
looks like a white perch

Eastern in a reservoir. Yeah I was looking to catch some bait fish for the catfish but as soon as the line hits the water these things were grabing them.
I definitely agree with gabulldog!!! Looks like a juvenile white perch!!!

IF YOU'RE FISHIN ON CREDIT, YOU'D BETTER SWITCH TO DEBIT!!!
Looks like a crossbreed of whitebass ( head/ mouth ) and a crappie ( body ). If you look close, you can see that it has a lateral line very similar to a whitebass also. Also, as you know, the whitebass has a voracious appitite. Catching them one after another is normal when you find a school of them. I'm glad you took a picture of that fish. It may be a new breed. How did it taste?
