You get him to a less polluted lake.
Or pick him up and let him into the lake.

You don't wanna eat anything from Lake Ontario especially near the shore.
Loads of unknown pollutants thanks to Kodak and such.

if a fish that size beached itself it's already on the way out. just leave it. it's going to die no matter what you do.

it's actually probably happiest where it is, since oxygenated water is flowing past its gills and it's too weak to swim. if you move it to slower moving water it will probably suffocate.

It may not have beached itself, it may have gotten stuck between tides.

that's a bigass fish with plenty of water to maneuver in. it's there because it wants to be there.

agreed it's probably trying to get to one of the creeks/canals/rivers, just saying it may have gone right before tide change.

>largest tides caused by the combined forces of the sun and moon, is less than five centimeters in height. These minor variations are masked by the greater fluctuations in lake levels produced by wind and barometric pressure changes. Consequently, the Great Lakes are considered to be non-tidal.

dubs for being wrong.

I was taught in school that the Great Lakes do have true tides.

http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/gltides.html

BTW in the last few days the Tides across the north and eastern part of the state have been the strongest they have been all year. Meaning that the high tide could have been a foot or two higher in the great lakes region, then they were all year. In my state the tide was 2 feet higher at ocean level because of the strong tide over the past few days.

Just because it is considered non tidal, doesn't mean that there are periods where the tide gets ordinarily high. There is a difference between "being considered tidal" and having a "true tide"

Great lakes do infact have a "true tidal pattern" but it is ordinarily very small change, however it can change to unordinary heights on some days.

it has what is called a "true tide" where the water level is effected, but only very slightly.

Hey guys, OP here. I managed to get the fish back into the lake, but if what you guys said was true about him wanting to go upstream, then he might be dead.....
He swam off and kicked a lot in my hands, I hope he's ok.

I don't understand this human need to "help" nature. That fish was doing just fine.

My neighbor told me a story this summer where she watched where a snapping turtle laid it's eggs and thought it was in a bad spot. So she dug them up and moved them. Than when they hatched she thought they were struggling so she performed cpr on tiny fucking turtles!

Moral of the story is leave nature the fuck alone, they know what they are doing and if they die in the process so be it.

to hold this opinion you need to hold the following two assertions.
1. that humans are separate from the rest of nature and not a part of it
and...
2. that common traits of human nature (for example, to do good by our surroundings and to want to put things into order) isn't natural.

who is it who's really interfering with nature anon? OP, or you?

spawning steelhead by the looks of it. Timing seems about right. Just leave it where it is. It might well be spawning there on the bed because of the flow of oxygen to the spot for the eggs.

Lake Ontario has a seiche with a period of around 5 hours, and sometimes wind set-up piles up water at one end.
