Créer mon concours de pêcheThe Paddlefish belongs to the Polyodontidae family. The adult size is between 1.2 m to 1.8 m. It has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years. They spawn in April to May. It can be fished from mid-May to June. The long paddle-shaped snout of this fish represents about one-third of its total body length. The snout helps stabilize fish as they swim and also contains specialized cells that help detect swarms of plankton that this species feeds on. The skin is smooth. Small individuals are pink at the back and white at the base; for older people, around 25 à 30 cm, the body color changes to bluish grey on the back and cream on the vent. The eyes are small compared to the rest of the head and body. On the underside of the snout are two little barbells in front of a large, toothless mouth. When seen through the mouth, the gills are large and show the many closely spaced filaments that trap microscopic food. On each side, a gill cover extends backwards, ending with a long pointed flap. The skeleton is composed of cartilage rather than bone. The tip of the spine extends into the upper lobe of the heterrorcercal tail, much like a shark does.

The posterior part of the eye is covered with a moderately developed adipose eyelid, and the posterior end of the jaw is placed vertically under the center of the eye. The dorsal fin is in two parts, the first part composed of 8 spines and the second of one spine followed by 22 to 25 soft rays. The anal fin consists of 2 previously detached spines followed by a spine and 19 to 21 soft rays. Pectoral fins become sicklier with age, with 21 to 23 rays, and are slightly longer than the head. The lateral line has a pronounced but short anterior arch, the curved section intersecting the right section below the spine of the second dorsal fin. The right section contains 0 to 7 scales followed by 46 to 56 very strong scales, with bilateral hulls on the caudal peduncle. There are a total of 86 to 98 scales and scales on the entire lateral line. The color of the blue runner varies from bluish green to dorsally olive green, becoming silver grey to copper below. Juveniles often have 7 dark vertical stripes on their bodies. The color of the fins also varies, all fins ranging from darkest to darkest or from hyaline to

The Permit fish belongs to the Carangidae family. Permits reach a maximum length of at least 122 cm and a weight of 36 kg. Permit can be up to 23 years old, but they probably live longer. The spawning season of permit can last all year round. It can be fished in the spring. The deeply forked tail and elongated front dorsal fin provide the most distinctive features of the permit. Resembling long sickle-like fins, these fins give the name of the fish species, falcatus. However, the permit can also be identified by its highly compressed lateral body, which gives the fish a fine and high appearance. From a lateral point of view, the shape of the permit is rounded in juveniles, but becomes oblong as the fish ages to become an adult. In addition to the long dorsal anterior fin, inserted directly above an elongated anterior anal fin, it also provides 17 to 21 soft dorsal and 16 to 19 soft anal rays. The permits have bright silver sides and blue-green or brown backs. The belly sometimes has occasional yellow or black spots. The fins appear dark grey or black.

The Bull trout belongs to the Salmonidae family. It can measure up to 103 cm long and weigh up to 14.5 kg. It can live for a dozen years. It breeds from July to December. It can be fished from June to February. Like other arctic char species, the fins of a bull trout have white leading edges. Its head and mouth are exceptionally large for salmonidae, which gave it its name. Bull trout up to 103 cm long and weighing 14.5 kg have been recorded. Bull trout can be migratory, moving through major river systems, lakes and the ocean, or they can be resident and remain in the same river all their lives. Migratory bull trout is generally much larger than resident bull trout, which rarely exceeds 2 kg. Bull trout differs from brook trout (S. fontinalis) in the absence of distinct spots on the dorsal fin, as well as yellow, orange or salmon spots on the back, as opposed to red spots with blue halos on the trout stream. Bull trout do not have the deep-dug caudal fin of lake trout (S. namaycush, another Arctic char).
