there is something serious going on with nature in michigan. i'm 70 and can remember smelt drinking when i was a kid. i wasn't doing the drinking. this was taking place in lake huron, tawas, omer, oscoda. you could always get some for at least a few dinners, sometimes much more. another thing i notice is the lack of frogs. there are a lot less frogs than there use to be. turtle seem to be vacant where you use to see them.
I have not seen any studies that would suggest that. The declining population is mostly due to the recovery of Lake Trout and other fish that eat them.
@@discovertheup unless have a ATV or want to walk 2 or 3 miles on land or river.. wish would of explained that. Way dnr has most set up now ,if good fishing spots.
Yeah I had to take a drive for this interview since the research vessel that covers Lake Superior is docked in Ashland, and where the USGS field office is.

This episode was way more interesting than I anticipated. I would love to go on a river/logging history tour with Bill Ziegler.
He's so knowledgeable about it all!

You cant get to some of those places ,upper holmes n lower holmes are mostly private to.
