Terry, you must remember the alewives. I remember walking along the shore of Lake Michigan in the 60s when those things were washed up in a pile a few feet wide and a few inches thick and running as far as you could see. They had no predators, multiplied fast but lived only 3-4 years before they die and wash ashore. The stocking of the Great Lakes with salmon helped control them. Made some nice salmon fishing too.
