MANITOULIN—While their numbers are not large (as of April 19), the smelt fish are running on Manitoulin Island water bodies.
“They are running at Kagawong. At this point they are running slowly, there are small numbers, but there is a few running,” Mayor Bryan Barker of Billings Township told The Expositor last week.
He pointed out the smelts started to run in the Kagawong River around April 14. They had been reported as running in Manitou River about a week prior to this.
