Went to Cartier lake today in the Petawawa research forest and my girlfriend landed this little guy. Wondering what it is ???



Great lake to go to if you want quantity, not much for fish over 2Lbs. Lots of Larigies and Smallies in the 1Lb range. Surprisingly this was the 2nd time we have fish there and we did not catch a Pike. Could it be that this lake has no Pike ??? The only downfall about this lake is that the gates to the research forest open at 8ish and close at 17:30 so if you are still out there after they close the gates you might have to break your way out.

Shiner? It is big though...

Fallfish.

Almost has scales like a carp, although I know it isn't one. Fallfish or shiner, I would have been scratching my head too!

Nothin' to scratch your head about... senor blogspot is correct... she be a fallfish

Thanks alot...you just named my favorite lake X for my favorite fish!!!

LOL, Looks like I let the cat out of the bag haha.

Fallfish...one the small end of the scale. This time of year you start to see the big ones (in the 15" range).

Fallfish is also called silver chub, or just chub.

I caught about 2 dozens on St. Lawrence yesterday on worms. Nothing more than 1 lb though.
