Lake Trout
Salvelinus namaycush
Lake trout are a large, cold-water char native to deep northern lakes, where they often suspend offshore or hold near steep drop-offs. They can grow very large and are prized for firm, rich flesh, but many populations are slow-growing and vulnerable to overharvest.
Largescale Stoneroller
Campostoma oligolepis
Largescale Stoneroller is a small North American minnow that grazes algae and organic films in clear, shallow streams. It is not a common sport fish; anglers usually catch it incidentally while fishing creeks and small rivers.
Least Killifish
Heterandria formosa
Least Killifish (Heterandria formosa) is one of the world’s smallest freshwater fishes, with males much smaller than females. It is a livebearing fish that inhabits quiet, shallow vegetated waters; in many places it is more often studied than targeted by anglers.
Longear Sunfish
Lepomis megalotis
Longear Sunfish (Lepomis megalotis) is a colorful Lepomis in small clear streams, ponds, and lakes across much of central and eastern North America. Males show vivid breeding colors and are aggressive nest-guarders, making them easy to catch when guarding colonies.
Longnose Dace
Rhinichthys cataractae
Longnose Dace is a small, streamlined cyprinid native to cool, clear streams and rivers across much of North America. It often holds in current seams and riffles, feeding on aquatic insects, algae, and tiny drift items from the bottom and midwater.
Longnose Gar
Lepisosteus osseus
Longnose Gar (Lepisosteus osseus) is a long-bodied freshwater predator with a very narrow, elongated snout and needlelike teeth. It inhabits slow rivers, backwaters, lakes, and reservoirs across eastern and central North America, often cruising near the surface.
Marbled Swamp Eel
Synbranchus marmoratus
Marbled Swamp Eel (Synbranchus marmoratus) is a mostly nocturnal, elongate freshwater fish that lives buried in mud or hidden in vegetated backwaters. It is air-breathing, hardy in low-oxygen water, and can survive short overland movements in wet conditions.
Mottled Sculpin
Cottus bairdii
Mottled Sculpin is a small, bottom-dwelling freshwater fish of cold, clear streams and rivers in North America. It hides under rocks by day and forages on aquatic insects, crayfish, and other benthic prey at night or in low light.
Muskellunge
Esox masquinongy
Muskellunge are large, apex freshwater ambush predators native to northern North America. They inhabit cool, vegetated lakes and large rivers, and are a prized but challenging trophy fish for anglers.
New Zealand Longfin Eel
Anguilla dieffenbachii
The New Zealand longfin eel is a large, endemic freshwater eel that can live for decades and migrate to the sea to spawn. It is one of the world’s longest-lived freshwater fishes and is closely tied to clean, connected river and lake systems.
