dawn of a new fish industry was the discovery made Tuesday -that sleelhead trout (salmon) can thrive in the waters of Lake Erie A fish of this specie weighing about eight pounds was caught by fishermen off Catawba Island Tucs- day Several smaller ones were also brought ashore Several -years ago the Castalia fishing club procured some steel-head spawn from the Pacific coast hatched them 'in the club hatchery and placed the baby fish in Sandusky Bay The fish caught Tuesday is believed to have proven tho success of this exp'eriment The steelhead trout is a cold water fish and as the waters iri western Lake Erie is cold compared with the eastern end it is believed the fish would remain in this part of the fishing area and furnish tho means for establishing a salmon industry "This specie of tho finny tribe has a silvery sheen with flesh of a yellowish pink "The fish' caught Tuesday and a smaller one of the same specie were shipped to Governor White between the two cemeteries
