[your username]'s 2015 OSF Multi-Species Challenge Entries

Species must be identified and stated with the correct full common name of the species (ie, Bluegill Sunfish instead of "sunfish", or Silver Redhorse instead of "redhorse sucker"). The Latin name (binomial nomenclature) is highly encouraged to be added as well.

Rules:
•All fish species (native, introduced, invasive, micro) count.
•Fishing locations restricted to Ontario ONLY.
•All fishing methods are allowed.
•All fish must be caught legally. Within open season of that species. Fish must be caught on hook and line only. NO snagging, bowfishing, or netting. Fish must be caught within waters open for fishing for the particular species (no sanctuaries or targeting fish that has year round closures).
•No exceptions for incidental catches (that is, if you were fishing for Rainbow Trout during open Trout season and you caught a Bass when Bass season is still closed, you cannot count the Bass when it is caught out of season at that location).
•A species entry can only be counted when photographs clearly show identifying characteristics. A blurry picture will disqualify the species entry.
