#13/179:
Blackside Darter
Percina maculata
Captured 10/20/20, Looking Glass River, MI. Method: Electrofishing. Watershed: Lake Michigan (Grand R. watershed)
Notes: I love the pattern in the dorsal fin. I caught quite a few Blacksides in the Looking Glass, some with alternative color patterns. Blacksides can have discrete splotches (like the one above) up to a solid black line. The one below has a mix of the two.
