To our knowledge, there are no published studies on the fish
communities of the nearshore aquatic zone of Lake Superior proper.
The diversity and complexity of nearshore aquatic habitats are
likely to support a higher diversity of fishes than are found in
the offshore zone of the lake (Hoff and Bronte 1999). The most
comprehensive account to date of fishes of the nearshore zone of
Lake Superior is included in a monograph on the fishes of Isle
Royale by Hubbs and Lagler (1949). Although this monograph
concentrates on inland waters of Isle Royale, it provides a
compilation of fish records for the nearshore zone during
1904-1945. As such, the work of Hubbs and Lagler (1949) establishes
a baseline for all future inventories of nearshore fish communities
of Lake Superior.
