I didn't make a trout identification guide because trout aren't my area of expertise. I haven't been trout fishing in like 10 years, and I only like brookies. I'm quite content to fish small streams and creeks for panfish.
If someone wants to post up a trout identification guide, and they know what they are doing, then we can make it a sticky too. For the record, rainbows, and cuts have been reclassified as salmon.

Great article for ID'g fish, we have blue gills and seeds around here. I had no idea that there were that many of them to try to catch. A bass on a flyrod would be nice! Dave

That's an amazing post! Really great for all of us. I didn't realize there so many of my favorite fish species.

I am amazed that there are so many types of sunfish. Some are truly beautiful.

Anyone know where goggle-eye fit in here? They look a lot like the Ozark bass and rock bass. I'm pretty sure this is one:

Fantastic resource...thank you.
Anyone catch freshwater drum regularly? I seem to get them a lot in southern and middle Wisconsin. Not a fish I know much about.

Never seen anything like it. Looks like it could somehow be a mix of a Rio and a longear. Or just a strange exposure.

Chris I doubt it is bad exposure when you look at the color of his fingers, you are right he cought this fish and a bunch of Rio, 's too. could well be a mix.
Les and Cliff have everyone guessing.
