Mike Kelly manages the Saginaw Bay Watershed Initiative Network. He will talk about two recently restored reefs located in the Saginaw Bay and he will show a 15-minute film showcasing the Coreyon Reef. Mike will also talk about the national and local fishing tournaments held on the Saginaw River over the past few years and any upcoming river events.
Synopsis of the short film "Coreyon":
The Coreyon Reef restoration is aimed at bringing open water spawning reef habitat back to Lake Huron’s Saginaw Bay. Throughout history, land use, pollution, overfishing and invasive species have damaged native fish populations in the Great Lakes. But the Saginaw Bay is experiencing an era of restoration, with the Coreyon Reef restoration project being the latest effort toward building up resilient and self-sustaining native fish populations. Coreyon tells the story of this important restoration project for the Great Lakes fishery.
