The summer Rouge River fish surveys started off with a great surprise. While measuring and identifying fish on the Johnson Creek, Bob Muller noticed a minnow with a very large mouth and red stripe. It turned out to be a redside dace, a species found in very few watersheds in the state, endangered in Michigan, and declining in the Rouge River watershed.
