Life history characteristics of Great Lakes populations span the range for the species. For example spawning typically occurs in the fall but some populations may spawn as early as August Hansen et al. 2004 by CRC Press LLC 1995 or even in the spring Bronte 1993 . Age at first maturity is also highly variable across the lakes. For some shallow-water populations in Lake Superior age at first maturity can be as late as age 9 or beyond and some individuals may not spawn every year . Rahrer 1967 Swanson and Swedburg 1980 . This maturity schedule is comparable to those of some populations from Precambrian Shield lakes Martin and Olver 1980 or northern Arctic lakes. On the other extreme lake trout in lakes Erie and Ontario at the southern edge of their native range mature at age 3 and all fish are mature at age 5 or 6 Cornelius et al. 1995 Elrod et al. 1995 . These life history differences can dramatically affect the speed with which populations respond to management actions such as fishery regulations and stocking. The native lake trout of the Great Lakes used a diversity of semiisolated spawning habitats from shallow near-shore reefs to deep offshore shoals to .
