Good luck hunting :))
Not saying you caught anything under, just trying to understand what can be used for bait etc.
You cannot keep any fish under the legal limit regardless of what you do with it. You can only keep and use bait that is of legal size. A 19 cm salmon must go back for example

only legal sized fish can be used as bait. Undersized is UNDERSIZED, no questions asked, throw them back. It's still an offense to keep undersized fish for bait.

Unless of course that 19cm salmon was accidently foul hooked on an 8/0 and left in the water to think about what it had done.

Jk. Don't think I've ever hooked an undersized salmon tbh.
