Mike Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Lets give this a try and see who can identify the species of fish. I will start out with 1 hint. 1/ This species is found in the great lakes. If there is enough interest, I will add a hint a day, and I will post a new 1 every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
