Rare Catch at Les Cheneaux

Department of Natural Resources Creel Clerk Bill Schroeder (left) stands with Ron Maleport of Sault Ste. Marie, who landed an Atlantic salmon near the Les Cheneaux Islands during the Islander Bar’s Slammin’ Salmon tournament Saturday, August 20. The nine pound, four-ounce fish was a rare catch for the Les Cheneaux Islands area, and probably the only Atlantic caught in the tournament, Mr. Schroeder said.
