Default Albino carp???

Was out at Gavin's point last night drifting lindy rigs and caught this sorry the picture isn't very good but I hadn't ever seen anything like it before I'm guessing that it was just an albino I probably should have kept it too see if the gf&p would have wanted it but threw it back in http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/14/hyru2a3u.jpg

Looks like a silver carp to me. Should have killed it, never throw those back alive.

It looks like a smallmouth buffalo which is a native fish. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallmouth_buffalo

Just wondering what sort of research you are talking about. A smallmouth buffalo has more of a subterminal mouth than the fish you are holding.
