Abstract
► Otolith chemistry discriminates white bass spawning grounds in western Lake Erie. ► We examined vagrancy of white bass to the Sandusky River using otolith chemistry. ► Vagrancy was sufficient to prevent formation of genetically distinct spawning stocks. ► Vagrancy rates were not influenced by fish age or sex. ► Lake Erie white bass population is a metapopulation linked by vagrant individuals.
