  • Life History and Population Dynamics of Lake Sturgeon
    LIFE HISTORY AND POPULATION DYNAMICS OF LAKE STURGEON, Acipenser fulvescens, IN THE MUSKEGON RIVER, MICHIGAN by Paul Joseph Vecsei (Under the direction of Douglas L. Peterson) ABSTRACT The lake sturgeon was once abundant throughout Lake Michigan with an estimated 11 million fish prior to human exploitation. By the early 1900s, however, most populations had been decimated by severe over-fishing and habitat degradation. Despite recent interests in restoring the species in Lake Michigan, little is known about the current status of remnant populations. The primary objectives of this study were to estimate annual spawning stock abundance and to identify potential spawning habitat for lake sturgeon on the Muskegon River, Michigan. To capture adult lake sturgeon, I used large-mesh, bottom-set gill nets deployed at the mouth of the Muskegon River from mid- March through May, 2002-2005. Radio telemetry was used to monitor seasonal movements and to identify likely spawning habitats. Sampling for larval lake sturgeon was conducted in May of each year using D-frame drift nets anchored in the mainstream of the river channel. During the 4 years of the study, I expended more than 5000 gill-net hours and captured 59 individual adult lake sturgeon. Larval lake sturgeon were captured in 2 years, suggesting that at least some natural reproduction still occurs. Habitat analysis revealed that the lower Muskegon River likely contains extensive reaches of potential spawning habitat for lake sturgeon. INDEX WORDS: Biology, population dynamics, habitat, lake

  • Summary of Trout and Salmon Stocking in Lake Michigan 1976-2002
    Lake Michigan Committee Meeting Milwaukee, Wisconsin March 19-20, 2003 Summary of Trout and Salmon Stocking in Lake Michigan 1976-2002 Prepared by Jessica M. Richards and Charles R. Bronte U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Fishery Resources Office 2661 Scott Tower Drive New Franken, WI 54229 This report summarizes trout and salmon stocking in Lake Michigan from 1976-2002. Stocking information was provided by the Department of Natural Resources of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin, who stock Pacific salmon, brown trout, and splake, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, who provides all lake trout for restoration purposes. These data should be considered provisional because not all agencies have officially verified the stocking numbers. With the exception of lake trout, no attempt was made to express stocking totals in yearling equivalents. Consequently, numbers for all life stages stocked for a given species were added together. To accurately examine trends in adult trout and salmon abundance in Lake Michigan, detailed information on hatchery programs, genetic strains, size at stocking, and stocking practices would have to be considered. Lakewide Trends: The number of trout and salmon stocked into Lake Michigan in 2002 totaled 12.0 million fish (Table 1), which was about 1.0 million fewer fish than last year. This level of stocking was 2.4 million less than the long term average of 14.5 million, and one of the lowest levels since 1977. Total stocking peaked at 17.3 million fish in 1984. Chinook Salmon: Chinook salmon stocking in Lake Michigan decreased to 3.3 million fish in 2002, which was about 1.0 million fewer fish than last year (Table 1).

  • Download the Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trails Plan
    Water Trail Plan Inland Waterway and Straits Area Cheboygan and Emmet Counties Funded by: Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce and the Michigan Coastal Management Program, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality with support from the Emmet County, Cheboygan County, Mackinaw City, and volunteers. June 2014 1 Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trail Plan Introduction The Inland Waterway is a 40 mile long historic water route that connects Lake Huron by way of Cheboygan, Indian River, Alanson, and Conway and with series of long portages at the headwaters to Petoskey State Park and Lake Michigan. A coastal route, part of the Huron Shores Blueways, connects the City of Cheboygan to Mackinaw City and the Straits of Mackinac. Like the interior water trails, the coastal waters have been used for transportation for thousands of years. The Inland Waterway has long been marketed as the motor boating paradise. Sitting along the banks of the Indian River on a summer afternoon and watching a steady stream of motored craft pass by, attests to the marketing success. There has never been a multi-community effort to organize and promote a paddle trail. Human-powered quiet water sports are among the fastest growing outdoor recreation activities. Combined with other active sports facilities such as the North Central State Trail, North Western State Trail and the North Country Trail, the water trail will bring visitors to the area, add to the quality of life for residents and enhance the rural-recreation sense of place. Furthermore, development of the water trail represents a regional, multi organization effort and will support economic development in the region of the state dependent upon recreational visitors.
