NAME THAT FISH


For the last couple of months I've been fishing a lot of fresh-water lakes and streams around the US and Canadian countrysides. Mostly goofing off, but I learned a few new things about some freshwater fish species in the process.

Anyhoo....I got to thinking that maybe a little quiz is in order. I have always liked these impromtu quizzes.

This one is going to be about freshwater fish names.

Can you NAME THAT FISH?

(NOTE..There are NO trick fish in this quiz. Some are big..some are small. They are all legit.)
