What in canals are those "bullet-fast, silver, shiny, larger than minnow  fish, that travel in groups" called?

shiners or shad or you would probably be correct to just call them minnows

for bait id say minnows and salmon eggs. they love 'em. for lures run spoons, spinners, rooster tails, even some rapala minnows will get eaten by the big ones.\n\ngood luck and leave a few for me!

As far as I know, the Giant Mekong Catfish mentioned already holds the current record for largest living fresh water fish.\n\nOther giants of the fresh water realm include the South American giant arapaima (Arapaima gigas), or pirarucu.  There used to be specimens of this giant fish up to 15 feet long and several hundred kilos in weight, but they have been fished out, and individuals over 8 feet in length are very rare now.\n\nThe beluga sturgeon (Huso huso) of Russia at one time may have outweighed even the Mekong catfish.  Archaeological excavations of fish caught in the 14th century show that as many as one fifth of the beluga sturgeon caught back then were between 4 and 6 meters in length (12 to 18 feet).  The largest catch recorded was an individual 6 meters long and 3200 kg (7000 lbs).  Other evidence indicates that historically, this species could actually reach 10 meters (30 feet) in length!  Sadly, overfishing and other factors have reduced the numbers and average size of this slow-growing fish, and most of them now only reach 2 meters or less in size.

Well, it depends really on what part of the country you are in.  Some places go out in the morning and catch Shad.  They are the flat, wide and really shiny minnows.  The others are just minnows that they caught I am not sure of the technical names of them all.

Oh! Deltas! Estauries are sunken river mouths. Good examples: China's Pearl River Delta, Argentina's La Plata, Maryland's Chesapeake Bay.\n\nBird's foot or digitate, that's where the river branches out at the mouth. Nile River Delta, the classic. Niger River Delta, and Mississippi Delta. \n\nArcuate. Hmmmm...I'm guessing it's roundish, but...I'm going to have to look it up! Yes, it's arc shaped, and the Ganges Delta is an example. Darn it! The Nile is, too! Oooh! Nice photo illustrating the Nile Delta article! Oh the Niger delta is, too! Guess that leaves the Mississippi Delta as a bird's foot!

Wading birds are thought to be a large factor in the spread of aquatic organisms upstream.  Especially passive dispersers.  I don't think ducks would be a big factor in the spread of bluegills because the adult fish can swim further and further upstream.  Also, I don't think the eggs are spread around, I believe bluegills build little nests for their eggs and lay them all in one place.  The larger fish are the main dispersing stage, not the egg.

They are those little (normally white) hard circle looking things that are growing on the bottom of boats and on whales...just google it...you will find pictures.

I think near the Wolf River there is some good stuff. As for black bass almost all over you can catch them.

I love catching all freshwater fish, but catfish are my favorite.They get big, they are easier to catch under most circumstances, and they taste good.

this refers to large or channeled rivers that can be quiet and slow moving on the surface but move very fast deep in the bottom of the river. people who are quiet but always thinking are said to be this way. they look like nothings going on, but if you go in and deep down, a lot is going on.

Bass are the top sporting fish in the world but if your looking for the best eating fish I would go with the walleye or large perch(same family)
