Hey Guys,

Jersey-Man and I went fishing in Quebec on the week-end, and the report for that will come once we get the photos developed... Anyways, Jersey-Man was trolling along shore, and using a Fat Rap, perch color, hooke into a fish I have no idea what it was... It looked a lot like a carp scale wise, but it had a round head, with a normal mouth, not a sucker...

Sooo what fish, that would be found in quebec, looks like a carp, but has a normal fish mouth? Please gimme some ideas!! It's bugging me.

Sounds like a bowfin.AKA. Dogfish. Was it green and did it have one big long dorsal fin?

:) If it was around the 2lb. mark I'll bet a Rudd.

Did it have reddish fins?

Well

So far, legend is the closest... It doesn't have a long dorsal fin, it looks like any other "normal" fish with carp scales...

The Rudd looks quite a bit like it, but the one we caught did not have the red fins, and was more purplish-gold in color...

Chubb.

Hey Hawg,

You may very well be correct.
