Species Overview

Brook Trout

The brook trout is actually a char, native to cold, clean streams of eastern North America. Its olive-green body with distinctive worm-like markings (vermiculations) and red spots with blue halos make it one of the most beautiful freshwater fish.

Swordfish

The swordfish is a highly migratory pelagic predator recognized by its long, flat, pointed bill. It can dive to depths exceeding 2,800 meters and possesses a specialized organ that heats its eyes and brain for improved vision in cold, deep water.
