Depends on species.some fish,like bass,prefer warmer water,while trout,for example are a cold water fish.Smallmouth bass like temps somewhere in between that of a largemouth and a trout.Water temperature is very important to the survival of fish,as it signals to them,feeding patterns,and spawning cycles.
