I don't see any barbels.  Goldfish would explain its 'fatness'

Way too many lateral line scales for a goldfish.  Just a weird carp, a lot juvi carp are deep with barely visible barbels.  Of course it could also be a hybrid but it definitely isn't a pure goldfish

Hard to dig worms without a shovel in the ground, even harder to catch fish in front of the computer screen.
