sk_usagi Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Heya, My boyfriend caught this fish over the weekend at BBQ island in Dunnville, but we have no idea what it is. First time i've seen one. Very pretty with big fins and white iredesent colour. Does anyone know what it is? thanks! -usagi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beats Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) well.. it's a sucker of sorts. Someone will know the type I'm sure. I'm gonna say White Sucker. Edited October 16, 2008 by Beats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishfield Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) Catostomidae most likely a redhorse. "Pretty" - me thinks NOT! Edited October 16, 2008 by irishfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smbhunter Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 That looks like a very large silver redhorse, (not 100% certain, but about 90% sure). My buddy caught one a couple years ago in the Notty, at Angus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
