 Common dace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Common Dace (Leuciscus leuciscus) is a freshwater or brackish fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae, also known as the Dare or the Dart.
The Common Dace natively lives in a temperate climate and prefers water with a 6.0 - 8.0 pH and an ideal temperature range of 39 - 72 °F (4 - 22 °C).
The Dace is a lively, active fish, of gregarious habits, and exceedingly prolific, depositing its pale yellow eggs in the spring at the roots of aquatic plants or in the gravelly beds of the shallow, flowing streams it frequents.

 Fish we have in our ponds - dace.jpg   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Dace are generally smaller than both roach and chub and their dorsal and anal fins have concave edges (convex in the chub).
Dace breed earlier in the year than most coarse fish, so they are unlikely to form hybrids with other species such as chub and roach, in February and March shoals of dace gather in the riffles to spawn.
Dace grow fairly rapidly at first, and adult fish are mature after two years, Females live longer and grow larger than the males - so any dace you catch weighing more than 0.45kg (1lb) is most likely to be female and at least ten years old.

 Neglected dace fishing
To be honest we all really know why dace are not as in vogue a species as chub or barbel and that is the size to which they grow, if they attained weights of four and five pounds I think it would be a different story.
The location and observation of dace throughout the summer, although fascinating, is no indication as to their whereabouts during the winter months and I have yet to find it possible to observe any annual migration to their winter quarters, although there is no doubting that this is the case.
Dace certainly prefer deeper water in winter but I know good areas that are five foot deep and equally as good swims that are nine foot deep.

 Dace
Possible reasons for the decline in dace populations are low flows leading to poor spawning and increased predation from cormorants.
In poorer environments dace will have a broader diet feeding on a wide range of small invertebrates that are either picked from the drift or from the river bed.
Spawning: Dace are the earliest spawning of all coarse fish.

 CALIFORNIA'S PLANTS AND ANIMALS
Nature and Degree of Threat: The major threat to the Amargosa Canyon speckled dace is the potential dewatering of its unique habitats, the Amargosa River and tributaries, by water withdrawals from both distant and near points on the aquifer that feeds the system and by local stream diversions.
The small population of dace in the Amargosa River may be dependent upon recruitment of dace from Willow Creek.
Listing of the dace and other regional fishes as threatened might forestall massive groundwater pumping by Las Vegas Valley Water District until it can be determined for certain whether or not the Amargosa River depends on the aquifer and would be threatened by the pumping.

At the foraging patch scale, longnose dace chose patches with significanlty greater prey densities than were available from randomly selected stones in summer and spring, when prey were distributed in distinct patches, but did not select high-prey patches in fall, when prey were uniformly distributed.
At the reach scale, longnose dace were signficnatly under-represented in depositional reaches in all seasons.
Among erosional reaches, prey density was significantly different among reaches in all seasons, and prey density/reach was positively correlated with longnose dace density/reach in all seasons.

 UMATILLA DACE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Umatilla Dace are known from the larger main rivers of the lower Columbia Basin of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and British Columbia including: Columbia River at Umatilla, Oregon, Payette River Idaho, Salmon River Idaho, Columbia River at Rock Island Dam, and in the Columbia River east of the Cascade Mountains.
Umatilla Dace is likely to be endangered in Canada due to an extremely small population size, extremely restricted distribution and presumed habitat preference.
Umatilla Dace is also vulnerable to any catastrophic event affecting a single drainage, but unless their habitat is adversely affected, naturally or otherwise, there are no reasons to suggest that the populations should not be sustainable.
