WHITEFISH FISHERY OF LAKES HURON AND MICHIGAN 361<br />

July inshore concentrations occurred at 61-70 feet <strong>and</strong> <strong>of</strong>fshore peaks at more than 110<br />

feet. The <strong>of</strong>fshore concentration in August was still in deep water but <strong>the</strong> inshore<br />

maximum was at 81-90 feet or 20 feet deeper than in June <strong>and</strong> July. (The August<br />

data were inadequate, however, for depths <strong>of</strong> less than 71 feet.) The data for September<br />

<strong>and</strong> October yield no evidence <strong>of</strong> two concentration zones <strong>of</strong> lake trout in<br />

<strong>the</strong>se two months. Data were lacking, however, for depths beyond 110 feet.<br />
