Episode 143: Small river fishing with Host Tyler Wilczek

This week on the Tidechasers Podcast we’re joined at the round table by special guest host Paul from Great Bay Outfitters. Paul has been working closely with Chase from Rutgers University, who is also collaborating with Dr. Keith Dunton of Monmouth University, on several exciting marine research projects. In this episode, we dive into some thought-provoking science topics including offshore wind farms, sturgeon conservation, and fluke migrations that are sure to bring out the marine biology nerd in all of us. From there, we shift gears to one of the hottest fisheries in recent years: sheepshead. We break down the explosive growth of this fishery, the importance of ongoing research, and how new tagging efforts both traditional and acoustic are helping us better understand these fascinating fish.
