According to my father-in-law there used to be a great population of musky in Lake Erie way back when .
Lake St. Clair is attached to Lake Erie, has about the same type of bottom structure yet Erie doesn't sustain a musky population. I thought when the gobies started becoming a pest that the musky and pike would move into the lake to feed on them, but that hasn't happened.
Any idea why we have a great musky fishery less than 100 miles away, on a lake that is attached to Lake Erie?
