You missed a click, go back!

NC Seafood- $10 The North Carolina General Assembly designated this ‘noisy’ copper colored fish as the state saltwater fish of North Carolina in What is the Red Drum (Channel Bass), Scianaenops ocellatus?

NC Seafood- $20 This invertebrate, pictured here, is the second most valuable species to North Carolina’s commercial fishing fleet. In 2013, it brought in over $12.9 million to North Carolina fishermen. What is Shrimp, Penaeus sp.?

NC Seafood- $30 This commonly eaten fish begins its life with eyes on both sides of its head – and ends with eyes on only one side. What is flounder, Paralichthys sp.?

NC Seafood- $40 North Carolina’s most valuable commercial species’ scientific name means ‘savory beautiful swimmer.’ Its common name derives from the colorful markings on its carapace. What is the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus?

NC Seafood- $50 A single adult of these reef building organisms can filter gallons of water a day. They are commonly eaten steamed or fried. What are oysters, Crassostrea virginica?

Ethical Angling- $10 This set of habits adopted by conservation-minded fishermen aims to protect the wellbeing of North Carolina’s fisheries. These practices minimize harm to the fish and their environment. What is ethical angling?

Ethical Angling- $20 In this recreational fishing practice anglers catch a fish and then release it into the water alive, allowing the fish to return to the population and perhaps be caught another day. What is catch and release?

Ethical Angling- $30 This backwards pointing part of a hook prevents the hook from easily being removed. They should be bent down when fishing recreationally to reduce injury to released fish. What are barbs?

Ethical Angling- $40 These regulations let anglers know how big a “keepers” is and how many “keepers” may be kept. What are size and bag limits?

Ethical Angling- $50 These round hooks, pictured here, hook fish more frequently in the jaw than the gut and result in higher survivorship of released fish. What are circle hooks?

Fish Habitat - $10 This habitat is the link between all other fish habitat types and can be found in nearly every body of water. It surrounds and supports aquatic animals and habitats. What is the water column?

Fish Habitat - $20 These habitats, known as marshes or lowlands, are well known for the multitude of ecological services they provide such as storage of flood waters and filtering of pollutants. What are wetlands?

Fish Habitat - $30 This habitat is found around oyster reefs and where clam shells accumulate. It is known as a natural alternative to hard structures used to combat erosion. What is shell bottom habitat?

Fish Habitat - $40 This habitat is formed by dense forests or patches of glasslike plants that remain fully underwater. It is a nursery to many young and juvenile fish. What is submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV)?

Fish Habitat - $50 This habitat develops around structures such as rocks and ship wrecks in the ocean. The structure of this habitat is often the only structure for great distances in the open ocean and as such attracts large numbers of fish. What is hard bottom habitat?

Fish ID - $10 Also known as the convict fish, this fish eats hard shelled organisms like barnacles and urchins, crushing them with strong human-like teeth. What is the sheepshead, Archosargus probatocephalus?

Fish ID - $20 This popular Sportfish is anadromous, meaning it lives in the ocean and returns to freshwater rivers to reproduce. What is the striped bass, Morone saxatilis?

Fish ID - $50 This fish prefers hard bottom habitat around natural and artificial reefs. Don’t confuse it with the diamondfish, heartfish or clubfish. What is the spadefish, Chaetodipterus faber?

Fish ID - $30 The largest billfish found off of North Carolina. It can grow to over 14 feet and weigh more than 2,000 pounds What is the blue marlin, Makaira nigricans?

Fish ID - $40 This fish, prized among sushi lovers, can grow to more than 400 pounds and has been recorded swimming as fast as 50 mph. What is the yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares?

Adaptations - $10 These organs absorb oxygen from the water and release carbon dioxide, helping the fish “breathe” underwater. What are gills?

Adaptations - $20 These small holes, usually near the front of the head are used to locate prey, predators, other individuals of their species and even specific areas of water. What are nostrils or nares?

Adaptations - $30 These markings may cause predators to confuse the tail of a fish for its head. They are an identifying feature on red drum and many butterflyfish. What are (false) eye spots?

Adaptations - $40 This sensory system unique to fish is composed of enlarged cells that detect movement in the surrounding water. In some fish the cells can detect small electrical fields. What is the lateral line?

Adaptations - $50 This set of small bones in the head of fish are used to maintain balance, detect acceleration and receive sounds. What are otoliths?
