It looked to be a species of dace. I did a search and it looks to be a speckled dace.
Growing up near the Weber river we would catch dace and I would use them all over in my fishing adventures. The big browns and cutts in the Weber loved them. Caught some nice cats out on the Bear with them. Would use them ice fishing and were a great bait all around. In the end they are a soft minnow and very desirable as a prey species for the fish that reside in the lakes and rivers where they exist.
