Lake Shrimp

[threejjj]

I fishing today and caught these little bug like things. They are very little about ---- that long. They look like little shrimp. They are grayish green in color. Does anyone know what they are?

Maybe they are juvenile crawdads? That would be my guess.

[webbie]

Google Brine Shrimp that may be what they are.

Google Brine Shrimp that may be what they are.

Unless the lake in question is a saline body of the Southwestern US, that's highly unlikely. Perhaps they are "scuds" (freshwater amphipods)?

Yes, I just looked them up and they are scuds.
