The ultimate guide to Great Lakes fishes—updated, enhanced, and with new color illustrations.
For everyday anglers, armchair enthusiasts, and serious students of fish alike, Fishes of the Great Lakes Region remains the definitive guide in the identification and study of the fishes of this important freshwater region.
Organized by fish family, with sections on waters of the Great Lakes region, zoogeography, field study and collection, preservation of fishes for study, fish identification, anatomy, terminology, and more, Fishes of the Great Lakes Region is comprehensive in its scope and breadth of information—truly the classic work on Great Lakes fishes.
It also documents a half century of changes in fish population in the region that have resulted from pollution, development, and the introduction of nonnative species. This edition will inspire future generations of anglers and students to take a fresh look at one of our most important fauna.
