Description
A small freshwater fish, the eurasian minnow is often used as bait for catching a variety of larger fish. Anglers use nets to easily scoop up large quantities of the eurasian minnow before a day of fishing, from where they shoal or swim in large schools. This behavior is a protective practice they incorporate to avoid their natural predators, who don't own nets.
