In the late spring and summer it's common to catch a bunch of common shiners when targeting riffles. They can be a real nuisance.
The males color up for the spawn and develop the head bumps and bright red fins. I think they're beautiful fish. A streamer this time of year incorporating some gold and silver flash along with some red would make a good imitation of a spawning shiner.
