Name the species contest
#1
I will tie half a dozen flies, ice jigs or send my favorite plastic jigs to the first person who identifies the fish in the pictures below. Winner will get to choose if they want flies, jigs, ice jigs, ice flies or a combination.

All of the species in the pictures were caught in Southern Idaho. All of the fish in pictures were caught within the last 12 months.

Good Luck!


The rules are:
#1 All species in the pictures need to be identified in a single post before the end of December.

#2 Before you post your answer you must have made at least one other post on BFT Idaho within the last year under your registered username. It doesn't matter if the post was made only 5 minutes before you post your answer.

#3 If you don't identify all the species correctly the first try you can try again but you may only make one post per day.

#4 You don't have to name the exact strain of fish but you can't post a general answer like "trout" or "bass". An answer like "rainbow trout" or "cutthroat trout" will be sufficient. If you guess that a species is "Yellowstone cutthroat" and it is a "Bear Lake cutthroat" I will still count your answer correct because it is a cutthroat trout.

No winner yet. Very close though. Just to keep the rules consistant you need to be more specific than "sucker", "perch" & "crappie".
"Bluegill" is specific enough.

We have a winner. riverdog was able to identify the sucker. It was pulled out of American Falls Reservoir. There are also mountain suckers in American Falls and many other waters in Eastern Idaho. Even though the exact strain of cutthroat wasn't needed he also nailed the correct strain of Cutthroat. It was pulled out of a Bear River tributary.
riverdog, I'll send you a PM.

I will post another contest in a few days.
