Fish need to
be able to breathe. Active fish usually require more oxygen than
inactive fish. Salmon and trout are very active and are constantly
swimming. As a result, they require more oxygen than other species.
Oxygen dissolves
into moving water ("lotic") more readily than it dissolves into nonmoving
(standing) water. If you are fishing a lake, look for inflowing
streams or springs. If you find a spring or inflowing stream,
fish it first as it will supply both oxygen and food to the fish
waiting below.
This list is given in the form "common name" and "Genus
species". For more information on each fish species,
