Not a bait expert by far, but we used to seine for silversides/spearing...or our generic term, minnows way back when I was child.
As an inquisitive boy, I would try to identify the many different species of fish caught in the net. Dad would deep fry them and we'd eat em' like fries.
The shape of their head may be the better way to distinguish them...although I believe the anchovy has a rounder body as well...
