Last year, in a unique U.S.-Canada partnership, we built a lake sturgeon spawning reef just off Fighting Island in the Detroit River. For the first time in 30 years, sturgeon have been found spawning in the Canadian section of the river. We are so happy about this wonderful news. The reef is supporting other species too. Walleye and lake whitefish are also using the reef, as well as the endangered species–the northern madtom. This shows how important habitat restoration can be for the revitalization of fish populations. Thanks to all those who have made this reef possible. John H. Hartig |
