This magnificent, encyclopedic reference to 157 fish species--which are found not only in Wisconsin but also in much of the Great Lakes region and Mississippi River watershed--has been a model for all other such works. In addition to comprehensive species accounts, Becker discusses water resources and fisheries management from both historical and practical policy perspectives.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Since the original publication of George C. Becker's landmark Fishes of Wisconsin in 1983, many changes have occurred in the Wisconsin fish fauna. Currently, 147 native species are recognized, one more than in Becker (1983). Two additional native species, southern brook lamprey (Ichthyomyzon gagei) and channel shiner (Notropis wickliffi), have been found in the state, and one former native species, longjaw cisco (Coregonus alpenae), is now considered merely a distinctive form of shortjaw cisco (Coregonus zenithicus). Hybrid northern redbelly X finescale dace (Phoxinus eos X Phoxinus neogaeus) may represent an additional unisexual clonal species, but genetic analyses of Wisconsin populations are required for confirmation. Six native species - ghost shiner (Notropis buchanani), ironcolor shiner (Notropis chalybaeus), creek chubsucker (Erimyzon oblongus), deepwater cisco (Coregonus johannae), blackfin cisco (Coregonus nigripinnis), and shortnose cisco (Coregonus reighardi) - are extirpated from the state. Two species thought by Becker (1983) to be extirpated, skipjack herring (Alosa chrysochloris) and black redhorse (Moxostoma duquesnei), have been rediscovered but are rare. Three endangered species, striped shiner (Luxilus (formerly Notropis) chrysocephalus), pallid shiner (Notropis amnis), and slender madtom (Noturus exilis), have declined greatly in distribution and abundance and are now nearly extirpated. Fourteen non-native species are currently established in the state, with kokanee salmon (Onchorhynchus nerka), threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), white perch (Morone americana), ruffe (Gymnocephalus cernuus), and round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) newly reported since Becker's (1983) book. At least 19 additional non-native species have been reported from state waters but are not currently established; 2 of these, red shiner (Cyprinella (formerly Notropis) lutrensis) and pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) had been tentatively considered by Becker (1983) to be established. The scientific names of 16 native and 2 non-native Wisconsin fishes have been changed, and several others may be changed in the future.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →People of the Sturgeon tells the poignant story of an ancient fish. Wanton harvest and habitat loss took a heavy toll on these prehistoric creatures until they teetered on the brink of extinction. But, in Wisconsin, lake sturgeon have flourished because of the dedicated work of Department of Natural Resources staff, university researchers and a determined group of spearers known as Sturgeon For Tomorrow. Thanks to these efforts, spearers can still flock by the thousands to frozen Lake Winnebago each winter to take part in a ritual rooted in the traditions of the Menominee and other Wisconsin Indians. A century of sturgeon management on Lake Winnebago has produced the world's largest and healthiest lake sturgeon population. Through a fascinating collection of images, stories and interviews, People of the Sturgeon chronicles the history of this remarkable fish and the cultural traditions it has spawned. The authors introduce a colorful cast of characters with a good fish tale to tell. Color photos by the late Bob Rashid and images from the Wisconsin Historical Society evoke both the magical and the mortal. Weaving together myriad voices and examining the sturgeon's profound cultural impact, the authors reveal how a diverse group of people are now joined together as "people of the sturgeon."

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Distribution and Food of the Fishes of Three Wisconsin Lakes in Summer Except for the reconnoissance of Reighard little has been published on the ecology of lake fishes. For several years the writer has been studying the distribution, food, and parasites of the fishes in Wisconsin lakes. In 1916 routine catches were made in Lake Wingra, which is small and shallow (pearse and Achtenberg, During the summer of 1919 the fishes in Green Lake and Lake Mendota were investigated (pearse, The former lake is remarkable for its depth and clearness, the latter for the stagnation of its deeper parts during the summer. In 1920 work was done on three lakes: -lake Pepin, which is a part of the Mississippi River and yet shows typical lacustrine conditions; Lake Michigan, representative of primitive lake habitats for the St. Lawrence drainage; and Lake Geneva, the clearest and deepest lake on the Mississippi drain age. The study oi the ecology of the Wisconsin lake fishes has progressed to such a stage that it is now possible to compare the fishes in six different types of lakes. Though this paper deals primarily with the three lakes studied during 1920, it also makes comparisons between all the lakes investigated, and thus gives a general summary of the work. Table I contains data relating to all the lakes considered. The lakes are arranged according to the total volume of water.
