Impact DescriptionThe increase in ruffe (Gymnocephalus cernua) in western Lake Superior was concurrent with declines in several fish species, including yellow perch (Perca flavescens), emerald shiner (Notropis atherinoides), and trout-perch (Percopsis omiscomaycus). However, there was a lack of clear causal evidence between the two events.
