LOGPERCHES are a group of ray-finned fish in the genus _Percina_ of the family
Percidae.
There are 11 species of logperch, native to eastern parts of the US and
Canada. The fish inhabit clear, gravelly streams and lakes. _Percina
caprodes_ is the most widespread of the species; some of the species with more
restricted distribution are threatened in various ways. Due to their small
size, the fish are not normally harvested for food. Habitat alteration and
inappropriate land use practices are the most common population stressors.
** Characteristics
The logperch is commonly found as a baby and around [6] in length, it has
features like small black dots on the surface, elongated front fins, and a
long skinny body, reaching a maximum size of about [18] and a maximum age of
about 3 years.
