Preface
Wayne H. Tody
Of Michigan's fishery resources, the sport fishery makes, by far, the greater contribution to the State's economy, and this has been the case for perhaps the last 50 years. In planning the content of this Centennial volume, we tried for broad coverage of fish management and history, without, you might say, giving proportionate space to sport fishing. In the above preface photos we call attention to the new, salmon, sport fishery and, at the same time, pay tribute to two former fishery the late August Scholle, member of the Commission of the Department of Natural Resources--on left, with an 8-lb coho salmon--; and the late Dr. Ralph A. MacMullan, department Director. Off Manistee, Sept. 4, 1970 (Please note photos not shown).
