    Once all the equipment has been taken care of, the location is the next concern. Fishing in a puddle in the driveway will not be very productive. The location will depend on what kind of fish one wants to catch. Once a species has been determined, a location should be easy to find. Again let’s say the target is black bass. Several types of bass can be caught in fresh water creeks, lakes, rivers, and ponds up to certain latitudes. Any of these fresh water sources should hold bass if it has been stocked, if it has a tributary, or if it has been established for a number of years.

    Freshwater fish are the most diverse type of fish but also the type of fish that is studied the most (Ross 2013). Lakes are one of the biggest bodies of water that freshwater fish succeed.

The environment is perfect for freshwater fish, these include the popular largemouth bass and many species of sunfish. Some other species that live in lakes are Catfish, Gars, Bowfish, Minnows, Perch and Bass (Whitney et al. 2004). Rivers and streams are bodies of water that are important for freshwater to thrive. Streams vary in the topography of their banks and the soil of the band and also the amount of light and shade they receive. The variation brings diversity of fish species.

  • Comparing Freshwaterwater And Freshwater Fish

    1099 Words  | 3 Pages

    Freshwater fish and saltwater fish are very similar in a lot of ways, but also have differences between them so you can tell them apart. Marine water (saltwater) equals over 96 percent of the water on Earth and over 70 percent of Earth’s total surface. Freshwater is less than four percent of Earth’s total water and is about one percent of Earth’s surface (Freshwater Fish). Interestingly a few species of fish can live in either freshwater or saltwater, but for the majority, they must live in a specific environment. All species of fish used to live in a saltwater environment until certain geological events (earthquakes, volcanic activity, etc.) occurred, creating conditions that isolated groups of fish. The new habitats, included freshwater, and new food sources caused fish to either adapt, or to die (Lohrey).
