Through the collaboration of the Ohio Division of Wildlife, Ohio Environmen- tal Protection Agency, and the University of Toledo we have been sampling the shore- line fish community from Toledo to Cleveland to investigate the habitat preferences of fish species and to develop long-term monitoring program. With this program we will be able to monitor the changes in the fish community in a continuously changing lake. For further information, please contact us at; [email protected].
