About Great Lakes Commercial Fishing

This group is about Commercial Fishing on the Great Lakes primarily but not restricted to the Great Lakes in a broader picture I want to devote this group to all inland Commercial fishing in North America, whether it be a small lake or even river fishing the common thread is it is related in some way to Commercial fishing in North American Fresh waters.

Most photo's seem to be of the Boats that Fishermen use, lets not restrict ourselves to that, lets add pictures of the past (dig out and scan those old family albums), pictures of the men and their Families, the pictures do not even have to be of them fishing but please mention who they are and their connection. Lets get pictures of the support businesses, net makers, processors, marine engines etc. Lets get photo's of men working on the boats and lets get photo's of some of the catch even pictures of boats or businesses that used to be in the fishing industry, lets chronicle the history.

I also welcome people in Great Lakes Research or Biology and have photos of the various species or of dangers facing the industry please post, if unsure post any ways and I will delete if I feel they do not fit.

Try to if possible Map where your photo's are taken, tag them if you can, would be nice to have description of what, where, who, and when.

Thanks Barry
