    EP154: Uncovering False Albacore | Capt. Ray Jarvis

    In this episode, Captain Ray Jarvis stopped by to talk everything false albacore. In the last few weeks, ASGA guides have deployed three (3) separate Floy tags on false albacore that were all recaptured less than two weeks later! These tags tell an important story about the value of false albacore as a catch and release fishery and raise questions about the total abundance of the fishery at scale. Seventeen (17) albies tagged by ASGA guides through the Coastal Pelagics Tagging Program have been recaptured to date. Each tag provides a look into the ever-moving lifestyle of little tunny…

    EP153: CALL TO ACTION - False Albacore in NC

    False albacore management is back on the docket in North Carolina. The first time albies entered the conversation in February, we saw big wins for little tunny. In that comment period, the North Carolina state agency let us know that it’s been years since they received this many comments on an issue. This influx of passionate digital comments was followed by more than 20 guides and anglers giving thoughtful in-person testimony over the course of two days. Every single voice made a difference. False albacore won because of your efforts. We now enter Step 2 in the process.

    EP151: Motion For Menhaden | Rapid Reaction

    Menhaden advocates from across the country tuned into today’s ASMFC Menhaden Board meeting. At one point, there were 163 people logged into the webinar. Why was this meeting so well attended? Because of a vague statement listed as the final agenda item: “Discuss Possible Chesapeake Bay Management (L. Fegley) Possible Action.” Now, you know as well as we do that Maryland is not exactly a bastion of conservation.  So, where could this be coming from? It didn’t take long to figure out. Pound net fishermen are not catching any menhaden in Maryland... #TheGuidePost
