“…Broad restoration targets like an increase in warmwater native piscivore species were able to be checked intuitively and quickly both on a regional and site‐specific level before delving into species‐specific differences as needed. The community metric approach applied here and ease of its use could benefit future assessments, especially under changing management requirements and environmental conditions to allow us to gain more insights over the course of the restoration monitoring (Barnes et al, 2020; Bouwes et al, 2016; Bowen et al, 2022). Multi‐metric indices like index of biotic integrity (IBI) have been used within the Great Lakes context (e.g.…”

“…This approach can be useful for highly abundant species that can inflate overall catch and for capturing community dominance changes (e.g. alewife; emerald shiner; Bowen et al, 2022). For instance, a specific species or type can have the exact same T A B L E 2 Traits and sub-traits included in the cluster analyses as well as proxies relating to community restoration goals.…”

“…Zooplankton available for larval coregonines, including cyclopoids, have declined in both the Bay of Quinte (Bowen et al, 2022;Hoyle et al, 2011) and Chaumont Bay (Figary et al, 2023), which could foster competition for zooplankton. Yet, species-specific differences in body length and gape size may act to partition consumable size classes of edible zooplankton between the two species when they co-occur.…”

“…Cyclopoid copepods are an important prey source for both species (Davis & Todd, 1998; Hoyle et al, 2011; Pothoven et al, 2014; Pothoven, 2020; Lucke et al, 2020), which is likely due to their large size relative to larval gape limitations and high abundances when larval coregonines begin exogenously feeding. Zooplankton available for larval coregonines, including cyclopoids, have declined in both the Bay of Quinte (Bowen et al, 2022; Hoyle et al, 2011) and Chaumont Bay (Figary et al, 2023), which could foster competition for zooplankton. Yet, species‐specific differences in body length and gape size may act to partition consumable size classes of edible zooplankton between the two species when they co‐occur.…”

“…We could then assess what the fish community looks like in an average electrofishing run at an ecotype and year. This can be helpful since increases or decreases in catch (for each sampling run) can mask proportionate changes and shifts in communities, especially with high catch differences among runs and with highly abundant species that can inflate overall catch (e.g., Alewife; [ 14 ]; S3 Fig ). For instance, a specific species or type can have the same abundance across two sites but very different relative abundance depending on the rest of the site community.…”
