\u201cSome mighty big fish lurk in the deep water just a few km offshore froM Port Credit.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cHow big?\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cSo big that it takes a strong man or, in this case,  one woman to lift one of these gnat salmon into a boat\u201d<\/div>\n

There was a time in the 1950;s when the Great Lakes fishery seemed doomed as alewives and sea lampreys made these<\/div>\n
massive lakes devoid of large fish.  Then Harold Tanner, an American scientist introduced Pacific salmon, predators,  to the Lakes and<\/div>\n
doing so changed the whole ecology of the Great Lakes. <\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
These giant salmon caught today not far offshore of Port Credit are the result of Tanner\u2019s experiment.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Brian Lambie was master of ceremonies handing out prizes to the lucky fishermen and fisherwomen.  His fellow club members enrich us all.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Today there were huge crowds strolling the streets and docks of Port Credit  Most were totally unaware <\/div>\n
that a small group of perhaps 100 people celebrated the rescue of the Great Lakes fishery.  And fewer still<\/div>\n
would remember Harold Tanner.   Miracles do happen.  Just for fun go to your computer and punch in<\/div>\n
his name.  You will be riveted to your seat for a couple of hours.  Guaranteed.<\/div>\n
