Fish of the Great Lakes Puzzle

The Fish of the Great Lakes puzzle by artists Duane Raver and Ellen Edmundson features 106 fish species. In short, this 550-piece jigsaw puzzle is a detailed guide to Great Lakes fish.

About the Artwork

The species include both common and exotic fish found in the Great Lakes and their tributaries. Each one is carefully illustrated and labeled.

In addition, the fish range from trout and salmon to perch, bass and pike. As a result, anglers will spot many fish they know.

With 106 species to build, every fish becomes a small puzzle of its own. Similarly, the labels help you learn the names as you go.

It’s a great companion to our other Great Lakes puzzles, including Lighthouses of the Great Lakes and Great Lakes from Space.

Where to Start

Start with the border, then build the largest fish, using their shapes as a guide, since it stands out right away. Next, work on the fish one row at a time. After that, piece together the smaller species and their labels. Finally, fill in the background, sorting those pieces by shade.
