By Gemma, Lydia and Leah

BassBass is the name of some species (types) of fish that are often caught for food or sport. There are freshwater bass (that live in rivers and lakes) and saltwater bass (that live in the ocean). Many bass live in or near North America.

Salmon• Before

Salmon is the common name for fish in the order Salmoniformes. They live in the northern Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and are anadromous, which means most types of salmon are born in fresh water, migrate to the sea, and return to freshwater to reproduce, or "spawn."

Cod is a teleost fish  that lives in the ocean, where it is one of the larger predators. There are different types of cod. Cod is an important type of fish for professional fishing. It is also popular to eat, because it is mild in taste. The livers of cods are processed to get cod liver oil. Along with Haddock and Plaice, cod is a very common fish to use for  chips

Cod

PlaicePlaice (Pleuronectes platessa) is the name for a kind of fish. Plaice are characterised by their smooth, brown skin, red spots and bony ridge behind the eyes. They live on the sandy bottoms of the European shelf. They can be found down to about 200 m.
