Sea FAQ What is an anadromous fish?
What is an anadromous fish? A catadromous fish?
An anadromous fish, born in fresh water,
spends most of its life in the sea and returns to fresh water
to spawn. Salmon, smelt, shad, striped bass,
and sturgeon are common examples.
A catadromous fish does the opposite
- lives in fresh water and enters salt water to spawn. Most
of the eels are catadromous.
