OK, Here we go.

Which of these fish lived here when Minnesota became a state in 1858?

A. carp


B. largemouth bass.


C. rainbow trout.

Just a quick guess will do fine. It's more fun without the research. I do have the answer.

 D. none of them.

I had actualy heard one time that the small mouth bass was brought in by men that worked on the railroad and dumped in lakes that the railers frequently stopped at so they could fish for them in these locations when they stopped.
