Bowfin (Dogfish) A medium-sized, greenish fish, the bowfin can be found in clear lakes and slow streams through much of Minnesota. Bowfin survive in murky, oxygen-depleted water by rising to the surface and gulping air into their air bladders. They can also survive out of water for a considerable time.
Among fishermen, the bowfin is the Rodney Dangerfield of American fishes, never accorded any respect. Many anglers regard it as a trash fish that competes with game fish for food. Hooked bowfin are often thrown on the bank to die. In fact, this lack of respect is patently unfair.Hooked bowfin fight as hard as--maybe even better than--any game fish.ound in much of the eastern half of the United States, the bowfin prefers slow creeks and the tannin-dark waters of acid-cedar swamps. Ancestors of the bowfin date as far back as the Jurassic period. The genus Amia was once found on most continents and some members of the family were even found in salt water.
