Finally a topic I'm interested in! Lol
I've thought about a fish series many times but the problem is most fresh water fish in Canada are not native here, the pretty ones anyways. Most of them were introduced here from European countires like the brown and rainbow trout.
Yeah walleye/pickerel might be tasty, but they aren't really a 'pretty' fish. A pickerel attacking a school of bait fish might work, but they certainly don't have any colors that would make it stand out on a coin.
Also considering one of the most iconic fish that helped develop much of our eastern provinces, the cod, also isn't a very photogenic fish. Not to mention it lives in salt water.
FYI - These are the words of a fisherman. I have hundreds of photos of myself with freshwater fish, and I am all for a fish series, I just think a series would have to be well thought out and executed for it to be successful.

Another vote for the Fresh water Fish! A nice walleye\pickeral would be a hit!
