Species above are divided into the general Trout/Salmon/Char groups based on their habbits. Clearly, the taimen is not a member of the char family, lenoks are hardly trout while sea trout and steelhead have no genetic differences with brown and rainbow trout respectively.

The Fishing Log is an Access 2000 based application allowing the user to store records of catches on a daily basis and print out annual reports with summary data. The database holds the images of 26 North American and European freshwater game fish. It also holds the images of 120 lures , artificial flies and live baits. With some knowledge on MS Access and PhotoShop you will be able to customize the fly, lure and bait table to suit your particular needs.
The annual reports are a useful tool when planning trips in the future years.
