It measured about 8" long and although some folks called it a herring I'm thinking it is a juvenile shad. Any other thoughts on the identity of this fish?
I'd go with anchovy.

Fly Fishing is the art of attaching a fake bug to a line and relying on the appropriate manipulation of the rod to deceive the fish into eating a sharp steel hook covered with feathers and fur.
