Chris is a fish biologist with the US Fish and Wildlife Service. The past couple years they have stayed at Island View Resort in November working on a Cisco project. These Herring are planted in the Saginaw Bay area to help rehabilitate the deep water population there. I learned that Herring can live well over 20 years. They are a great food source for Walleye, which acts as a good buffer between the Walleye and Perch. Chris shares some cool things to check out such as local fish hatcheries and ways to get involved, whether you want to volunteer or make a career in natural resources.
