Bob Gwizdz: How Lake Erie became a world class walleye fishery
Published: , in Outdoor News
Guys my age remember when Lake Erie was called the Dead Sea.
It was an amalgam of industrial waste and sewage, so polluted that one of its tributaries – the Cuyahoga River – actually caught fire (1969) and the lake was even closed for a year to recreational fishing in Michigan (1970) because the fish were too contaminated to eat. Now it is probably the best walleye fishery in the world.
