Freshwater Fisherman.... anywhere in the world

One of the new members just got me thinking about fishing again.

I keep a "life list" for my fishing, I keep track of all the species I've caught. I enjoy fishing for as many different species as possible, even those considered "non-desirable" by most. Catching a species of fish that I've never caught before is as fun for me as catching a trophy.

What species are common to your area? Anything unusual? I'm interested in all, but particularly curious about non U.S. species.
