Caught this today on a perch colored crankbait in KY lake. I'm guessing that it is a member of the carp family, but an internet search turned up nothing?

You must be mistaken. Asian carp won't hit crankbaits.
I don't think this is an Asian Carp?
Was this caught near a nuclear power plant?

But carp don't eat baits.......
It's not a mirror carp
It appears to be a grass carp with a deformed head. haha, and as I type this I see mrdux has already hit the nail on the head!
Don, it appears to be a deformed grass carp from the body shape and scales.

It's a grass carp. It's head is deformed for some reason but I have shot many of them and the body is definitely a grassy.

Golden shiner. We get those out of a private pond
It is most certainly of the carp family species. Fishin' is like a box of chocolates... you never really know what you're gonna get.
Think it might be a buffalo. I saw a couple years ago in a lake in Louisiana.
