    Trout Conservation with Bob Mallard of Native Fish Coalition e.53

    Today we talk about trout conservation specifically in the North East USA and the challenges associated with "getting stuff done." We talk about getting wrapped up in data, and not realizing its purpose. We talk about what needs to be done, and possible methods on how to do it properly. Have a listen as we spitball ideas about trout conservation on this episode of IN THE SEAM. BOB MALLARD was born and raised in Massachusetts, spending his first thirty years there.
