Michigan grayling saga echoes 90s Rush and 1925 study
A scrambled but readable survey traces the grayling story in Michigan from late 19th century fishing booms to its near extinction, citing Wayne State University biologist Charles W. Creaser’s 1925 note that the species might be saved. The article notes habitat loss from lumbering, silt and temperature changes, and rival competition with trout, with the last native catch recorded in the 1940s. A historic marker at the State Fish Hatchery in Grayling memorializes the fish once abundant in Au Sable and other rivers.
