“A fine fish, from one to three feet long; it is one of the best afforded by the Ohio, its flesh is esteemed a delicacy, being white, tender, and well flavored, whence the name of Salmon was given to it…”
Raffinesque, Constantine Samuel. 1899 [1820]. Icthyologia Ohiensis. Cleveland: The Burrows Brothers Co.
