Guadalupe Bass Micropterus treculii, the State Fish of Texas

 

The Guadalupe Bass is the official State Fish of Texas.  Closely related to the spotted bass, it lives primarily in small streams and rivers in central Texas.  Also called "Texas Trout" this handsome little scrapper is a handful on light tackle.
