The Great Lakes Fishery Commission, based in Ann Arbor, MI, is a collaborative organization established in 1955 by the Canadian U.S. Convention on Great Lakes Fisheries. They play a vital role in coordinating fisheries research, managing invasive species like the sea lamprey, and promoting cooperative fishery management among various state, provincial, tribal, and federal agencies.
With a focus on preserving the health of the Great Lakes ecosystem, the commission works towards protecting fish habitat, improving water quality, and conducting scientific research to inform effective management strategies. Through their efforts, they aim to sustain a thriving fishery while addressing the challenges posed by invasive species and other environmental factors.
