In the Great Lakes and connecting tributaries, Aeromonas salmonicida has had a larger impact on native salmonids than on introduced salmonids. It particularly affects Atlantic salmon, brook char or trout, lake char, grayling, and lake whitefish. It secondarily affects other native non-salmonid species such as northern pike, yellow perch, dace and minnows (Family Cyprinidae), catfish (Family Ictaluridae), sticklebacks (Family Gasterosteidae), and sculpins (Family Cottidae).

In 2011, Aeromonas salmonicida was isolated from a Michigan state hatchery for the first time since 2005 and was detected in 2% of returning adult Atlantic salmon collected from the St. Mary’s River, Michigan. Following elevated mortalities observed in Michigan in 2011, twenty cases of production and brood stock Atlantic salmon were tested for pathogens. Aeromonas salmonicida was detected in three of the twenty cases. However, analysis showed that furunculosis was not the cause of mortality.
