The pictures of the walleye warms my heart. Back in the early 60's a group of us chartered two 35' boats out of Port Clinton. Ohio to go walleye fishing. We caught only five small walleye and that was in illegal Canadian water that the captains went into to try to get us some walleye.

"""�Back in the late 1950s, the walleye population became severely depressed due to degraded water quality,� he says. �Prior to that, there were extensive commercial fisheries throughout the lake�not just Ohio and Ontario, but New York, Michigan, Pennsylvania�that probably contributed to the decline of walleye.�"""

In later years when the Zebra Snail invaded Lake Erie, airlines pilots flying over the lake were commenting how the lake had cleared up from the previous pollution of the lake.
