  1. rough fish

    Rough fish is a term used in North America to describe fish species that are less desirable to sport anglers, primarily because they are not commonly caught for sport or food. Their lack of popularity could be due to various reasons such as their taste, the difficulty in catching them, their appearance, or their prevalence. Rough fish species include carp, suckers, and gar, among others. These species often play crucial roles in their respective ecosystems despite their lower value in recreational fishing.

The term usually refers to larger fish species that are not commonly eaten, are too rare to be commonly encountered, or are not sought after by anglers for sporting purposes. Many of these species are very important in the commercial fishing industry, where they make up the bulk of commercial food fish catches in inland fresh waters.
