Cross Village Portable Boat Ramp
This project funded the construction of an all-metal removable boat ramp that has enhanced tribal and recreational fishing opportunities in the northern tip of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula. The ramp portion is 16’ wide and 50’ long. It is constructed of a metal grid over a rigid frame. It is mounted on tires for easier installation and extraction. There are skid piers on each side that are 5’ wide and 32’ long. The ramp is in use and provides easier access to Lake Michigan for as many as five different fishing boats. A vault toilet also installed on site to improve usability. The project achieved its primary goal of providing a superior boat ramp. Board Decision Year: 2011 |

Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge Gateway Fishing Access Facility
The GLFT partially funded the construction of a 740-foot-long dock that connects to a 200-foot fishing pier. The project provides accessible shore-based fishing opportunities on the Detroit river and is located at the gateway to the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge. In addition to fishing access, there was need of a new dock for the Michigan Sea Grant’s Great Lakes school ship on the Detroit River and western Lake Erie. The school ship will dock at the refuge gateway to make use of the river and refuge as a living laboratory for children. School children from all Detroit Metropolitan Area communities will come regularly to the refuge gateway for day-long field trips aboard the school ship. The SEMCOG/Metropolitan Affairs Coalition estimates at least 9,000 individual fishing trips to the dock each year. Board Decision Year: 2009 |

Simultaneous Analysis of Genetic and Age Data To Estimate Stock Contribution for Mixed-Stock and Strain, Open-Water Fisheries in the Great Lakes
Using genetic and age composition data, Michigan State University's Department of Fisheries and Wildlife developed new methods for identifying stock and cohort contribution to admixed, open-water fisheries. This innovation improves the ability to evaluate stock-specific recruitment from routine assessment or harvest data. The usefulness and performance of this new method were demonstrated with simulations and applications to Great Lakes stocks of lake sturgeon, lake trout, and walleye, which range in longevity, aging uncertainty and geographic scale of movements.

Characterizing Sources of Thiaminase in Great Lakes Food Webs: Assessing De Novo Production of Thiaminase by Fish
Thiamine Deficiency Complex (TDC), caused by thiaminase in the diet, adversely affects reproduction in Great Lakes lake trout, resulting in fry mortality. Thiaminase in prey may come from thiaminase-producing bacteria or may be produced de novo by the fish themselves. Preliminary data indicate that thiaminase-producing bacteria Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus are undetectable in some alewife with high thiaminase activity. Oregon State University used genetic and biochemical approaches to determine if alewife produce thiaminase de novo. Board Decision Year: 2009 |

The Human Dimensions of the Baitfish Industry: Investigating a Vector for Acquatic Invasive Species and VHS in the Great Lakes Basin
Despite agency actions (regulations, outreach programs) in Ontario and Michigan to halt the spread of aquatic invasive species (AIS) and viral hemorrhagic septicemia (VHS) in the Great Lakes basin, live baitfish are thought to be a growing vector for these problems. Mail surveys of anglers and bait industry individuals were used to learn why live baitfish continue to be illegally dumped in the basin's waters despite management efforts to stop this practice. Results are being used to strengthen management programs. Board Decision Year: 2009 |

Collaborative Fishery Management Opportunities Between Tribal and State Agencies
The 2007 Consent Decree, signed by five tribal nations, the State of Michigan and the United States, recognized tribal rights for hunting, fishing, and gathering within the inland portion of the 1836 Treaty of Washington ceded territory. Tribal rights for the Great Lakes had been established prior to this agreement, which contained similarities and differences in institutional structure. The 2007 Inland Decree recognized the tribes may need to conduct biological assessments and restoration—as well as reclamation and enhancement activities—and specific provisions were developed recognizing this need. When the 2007 Consent Decree was signed, and since that time, leaders of the respective agencies recognized that an opportunity existed to collaborate to achieve outcomes that would protect the fishery resource within the treaty area in a mutually beneficial manner. Grant funding from the Great Lakes Fishery Trust enabled the project team to work with the respective agencies to develop strategies for collaboration on assessment and restoration activities.
