Abstract:
Concerns have been expressed that increasing predatory pressure by salmonids may change the forage fish community of Lake Michigan. A decline in alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus), the major forage fish, would be a forewarning of such a change. Our 1973–82 surveys showed that alewife declined 86% in 1980–82; concurrently, rainbow smelt (Osmerus mordax) and yellow perch (Perca flavescens) increased threefold and fivefold, respectively. Spottail shiner (Notropis hudsonius) and trout-perch (Percopsis omiscomaycus) showed no long-term changes. Bloater (Coregonus hoyi) increased 24-fold since commercial fishing was prohibited in 1976. These trends imply that (1) alewife declined from predatory pressure, (2) alewife suppressed rainbow smelt and yellow perch, presumably by preying on their pelagic larvae, (3) alewife did not substantially affect spottail shiner and trout-perch, presumably because their demersal larvae escaped alewife predation, and (4) overfishing, more than the alewife, suppressed bloater.

Abstract:
Fish maturation schedules vary greatly among systems and over time, reflecting both plastic and adaptive responses to ecosystem structure, physical habitats, and mortality (natural and fishing). We examined maturation schedules of commercially exploited lake whitefish ( Coregonus clupeaformis ) in the Laurentian Great Lakes (Lakes Michigan, Huron, and Superior) by estimating ages and lengths at 50% maturity, age-specific maturity ogives (age-specific probability of being mature), and probabilistic maturation reaction norms (PMRNs; a metric that accounts for effects of growth and mortality). Collectively, these estimates indicated variation in maturation schedules between sexes (i.e., males tend to mature at younger ages and shorter lengths than females) and among systems (midpoint estimates of PMRNs were smallest for Lake Michigan fish, intermediate for fish in the main basin of Lake Huron, and largest for fish in Lake Huron’s Georgian Bay and Lake Superior). Temporally, recent increases in age at 50% maturity in Lakes Huron and Michigan may primarily reflect plastic responses to decreased growth rates associated with ecosystem changes (e.g., declines of the native amphipod, Diporeia spp.). As plastic and adaptive changes in maturation schedules of fish stocks may occur simultaneously and require different management considerations, we recommend the concomitant analysis of multiple maturation indices.

Abstract:
Fish often exhibit complex movement patterns, and quantification of these patterns is critical for understanding many facets of fisheries ecology and management. In this study, we estimated movement and fishing mortality rates for exploited walleye (Sander vitreus) populations in a lake-chain system in northern Michigan. We developed a state-space model to estimate lake-specific movement and fishery parameters and fit models to observed angler tag return data using Bayesian estimation and inference procedures. Informative prior distributions for lake-specific spawning-site fidelity, fishing mortality, and system-wide tag reporting rates were developed using auxiliary data to aid model-fitting. Our results indicated that postspawn movement among lakes was asymmetrical and ranged from approximately 1% to 42% per year, with the largest outmigration occurring from the Black River, which was primarily used by adult fish during the spawning season. Instantaneous fishing mortality rates differed among lakes and ranged from 0.16 to 0.27, with the highest rate coming from one of the smaller and uppermost lakes in the system. The approach developed provides a flexible framework that incorporates seasonal behavioral ecology (i.e., spawning-site fidelity) in estimation of movement for a mobile fish species that will ultimately provide information to aid research and management for spatially structured fish populations.

Abstract:
There has been considerable interest in the benefits and risks of eating Great Lakes fish, particularly with regard to reproductive health. We report the results of a survey conducted from 1993-1995 among Michigan anglers. The survey was designed to identify a reproductive-aged cohort of persons who consume high or low levels of Great Lakes fish in order to study the impact of polyhalogenated biphenyl (PHB) compounds and other toxins on human reproduction outcomes. Using fishing license data obtained from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, we identified anglers of early reproductive age (18-34 years) in ten Michigan counties. The screening survey ascertained demographic, behavioral, fish consumption, and reproductive history information on anglers and their partners. Over 4,000 angler households were contacted. One thousand nine hundred fifty questionnaires were returned from 1,168 households. The median age of respondents was 30 years; 58% were male and 64% reported being married. Slightly more than one-half the respondents had attended or graduated from college, and less than 10% had not completed high school. In the past year, most respondents (46%) reported having eaten sport-caught fish 1-12 times, while 20% reported having eaten no sport-caught fish; 20% had consumed 13-24 meals. More sport-caught fish was consumed in the spring and summer than in the fall and winter, and males reported eating more fish than females. About 43% of our respondents reported that they intend to have one or more children in the next five years. Of these respondents, 287 couples had no identified impairments to reproduction and therefore would be eligible to participate in the future reproductive study.

Abstract:
The cod family is represented in Illinois by only a single species, the burbot (Lota maculosa), occurring in the interior of Lake Michigan, and making its way at irregular intervals to the shallow waters within the reach of ordinary fishing operations. Since the opening of canals between the Great Lakes and the river systems of the State, occasional specimens have been taken in the Illinois and Mississippi. Its predaceous character is too well known to make special description of its alimentary structures necessary. It is reported by Mr. G. Brown Goode to feed upon various small fishes and Crustacea which frequent the bottom, devouring more particularly fishes with habits like its own. It is extremely voracious, with a wonderfully distensible stomach; and not only captures the most active fishes, such as the pike, but will eat carrion, and may even swallow stones. It is reported to be nocturnal in habit, and often to secure its prey by stealth.

Abstract:
Colonization by dreissenid mussels, <em>Dreissena polymorpha </em>(Zebra) and <em>Dreissena bugensis </em>(Quagga), is one of the more ecologically important events to occur in the Great Lakes during the last decade. Since their introduction into the Great Lakes, dreissenids have colonized both soft and hard substrates to depths of 80 m and reached average densities of 40,000 mussels m<sup>-2</sup> in the littoral zone. Because of high densities and widespread distribution, they have modified habitats for benthos and fishes and fostered growth and proliferation of non-indigenous species, such as the round goby and a Black Sea amphipod, <em>Echinogammarus</em>. In 2001, we used multibeam sonar to characterize the benthic habitat in Lake Michigan and acoustic remote sensing technology (sidescan sonar and acoustic bottom classification) to extend and extrapolate information on dreissenid distributions from spatially limited observations. These observations were combined with discrete in situ (video and SCUBA) observations in a geographic information system (GIS). We used this system to link dreissenid distribution with substrate type, morphology and depth. These data are critical inputs to modeling the ecological implications of dreissenid filtering on algal biomass and composition in the Great Lakes over changing environmental conditions.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract.-</em>Urban Fishing was the title of a pilot program initiated by the U.S. Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife Service in 1969, which is considered to be the beginning of urban fishing programs. Truly urban in scope, it set out to help resolve civil unrest in the inner cities of large metropolitan areas during the late 1960s. In 1983, an Urban Fishing Symposium was held in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and produced a <em>proceedings </em>under the same title. Subsequently, the term “urban fishing” has become a paradigm for educational, city-based fishing programs nationwide. The term “urban,” by definition, describes populations by numbers, 50,000 minimally. While applicable during this earlier time, the term “urban” is no longer appropriate given contemporary needs and views of nature. It is important that we recognize that we have been, and are still, undergoing this change in times. These changes will require programs to be sensitive to youth and young adults if we are to entice them to be future anglers. Programs such as Missouri’s and Nebraska’s Urban Fisheries and Utah’s Community Fishing Programs demonstrate the diversity of needs that are not particularly “urban,” and would be better defined under a “community” term and paradigm. Community is defined as a social group of organisms, sharing an environment with shared interests and needs. Respectfully, we suggest that “community” be adopted as the term for these types of fishing program activities, as it is appropriate and contemporary to the challenges facing fisheries managers.

<strong><em>Abstract. </em></strong>As part of a strategy to reestablish native stocks of lake trout <em>Salvelinus namaycush</em>, six areas of offshore and coastal Lake Michigan benthic habitat were mapped with a bathymetric laser system. This allowed us to visualize and map morphologic detail by at least an order of magnitude over existing data. Decimeter elevation–bathymetric data, referenced to the International Great Lakes datum of 1985, were obtained on a 4-m grid over a total area of about 200 km<sup>2</sup> in water depths from 0 to 30 m. Based on the laser-derived morphology, regional geology and sparse samples, three geologic regimes were used for substrate–habitat classification: (1) bedrock carbonates of Silurian through Devonian age, indicated by bedding scarps and lineations at or near the surface at all of the mapped areas; (2) glacial deposits that appear as compacted clay till lineations and cobble and boulder moraines with outwash features; and (3) modern sand deposits seen in thin down-drift (to the east) bedforms, sand sheets, and depositional lobes. Preferred spawning substrate—clean cobble and gravel deposits with adjacent deep water—is present in sections of all mapped areas. However, laser data cannot discern cleanliness, and video data indicate the cleanliness on this substrate may be compromised by recent algal and mussel growth.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract.</em>—The upper Great Lakes are the largest water bodies in the world whose ecological balance was and is owed to hatchery recruitment. This situation was caused by the loss of native predator stocks, the overpopulation of invasive alewives, other invasive species introductions, overharvest, physical habitat loss, and water quality degradation. In the 1960s, fish biomass in the Great Lakes was dominated by alewives that truncated the energy flow in the system. Episodic alewife die-offs littered beaches, destroying the shoreline tourist economies. The 1960s and 1970s saw the beginning of rehabilitation programs that included water quality initiatives, commercial fishing restrictions, intensive sea lamprey control, fishway construction, and the extensive stocking of the system with coho salmon <em>Oncorhynchus kisutch</em>, Chinook salmon <em>O. tshawytscha</em>, rainbow trout <em>O. mykiss</em>, lake trout <em>Salvelinus namaycush</em>, and brown trout <em>Salmo trutta</em>. These changes led to ecologically balanced fish communities and recreational and commercial fisheries with an annual value in excess of $2 billion, along with self-sustaining lake trout populations in Lake Superior. This fisheries management effort used 895,865,567 trout and salmon weighing 22,938,911 kg that cost, at minimum, $328,255,820 in 2002 U.S. dollars. In spite of these remarkable successes, critical problems remain, including the lack of lake trout rehabilitation and insufficient overall recruitment of predators in Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. Thus, Lake Huron and Lake Michigan, which are a continuous body of water, constitute the single largest body of freshwater in the world that is dependant upon stocking for ecosystem balance. Without stocking, they would revert to conditions experienced in the 1960s. The reason for reproductive failure of predator species in these lakes appears to be a combination of invasive species, overharvest, and habitat loss. These factors, along with the continued influx of new invasive species have slowed rehabilitation efforts in Lake Huron and Lake Michigan and cast uncertainty over the sustainability of the rehabilitation of Lake Superior. Without massive ecosystem level intervention, large portions of the Great Lakes will likely have to be maintained for the foreseeable future using hatchery recruitment.
