Abstract:

North Carolina waters contain a multitude of fish collectively known as bream. Physical differences are slight, such as shades of color and number of hard rays on the dorsal fin. Habitats, favorite foods, and times of spawning are things that further distinguish them. Kibler describes a number of bream, including the bluegill, shellcracker, redbreast, pumpkinseed, and flier.
