Longnose Sucker

Also called: Northern Sucker

Streamlined body with fine scales, an elongated snout, and a small downward-facing sucker mouth.

Cold, clear lakes, rivers, and streams.

Feeds along the bottom on aquatic invertebrates and other small food.

Small natural baits presented near the bottom can attract suckers where fishing is permitted.

Retain as a historical Connecticut guide entry unless current occurrence is verified. Do not describe it as common.
