Stella Clair: Steel Sturgeon.

Stella Clair: Steel Sturgeon

A 1,500-pound steel sturgeon named Stella Clair brings attention to the restoration of shoreline habitat and the celebration of most famous Great Lakes fish -- which can live up to 100 years! The sculpture was fabricated by Michigan native Lou Rodriguez. Each year Port Huron holds a Sturgeon festival to educate people about the history and majesty of this fish.
