A small minnow of clear, sandy streams in the Lower Peninsula. Identified by its silvery lower jaw. Rarely targeted but common in stream surveys.
No stocking records are on file for Silverjaw Minnow.
This is common for several reasons: this species may reproduce naturally and not require stocking (e.g. Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike), it may be managed under a different program not tracked here, or records may predate our database.
