Species Overview

Largemouth Bass

The largemouth bass is the most popular freshwater game fish in North America. Known for explosive topwater strikes and powerful runs, it inhabits warm lakes, ponds, and slow-moving rivers with abundant cover.

Sockeye Salmon

The sockeye salmon is famous for turning bright red during its upstream spawning migration. Its deep-red flesh is the richest in omega-3 fatty acids of all Pacific salmon species, making it the most valuable commercially.
