From the basement of the Sandusky library, page 29 of the book Sandusky of To-Day proclaims the town to be the
“largest fresh water fish market in the world”.
Two pages later, an image of the lake whitefish, referred to as “Sandusky’s pride”, takes up the entire page.
But the book was published in 1888.
Lake whitefish was a delicacy in this part of North America for centuries.
Indigenous communities centered their lives and traditions on the fish.

The water level at the reservoir to which I'm usually cycling (also in the evening) is now so low that fish have to be rescued from isolated "pockets" of water.
The water level is now 5m below summer-average ... the last time I've seen that was when the level was lowered by intent for some improvements & repair. Now it's "simply" a lack of rain ... We need some rain very soon ...
@… My math is 2000 gallons, at a minimum, but since there are no fish or other animals in the reflecting pool I agree that 5000 would be better. (I have a pond in my DC yard.)

Trump administration allows killing of species threatened with extinction
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service could soon declare that pygmy rabbits or Florida manatees are threatened with extinction.
But under a policy change issued by the Trump administration on Friday, Americans could still kill, trap and harass them.
That action
— paired with another issued Friday that requires regulators to consider the economic toll of habitat protection
— is part of Trump…
