Fisheries and Wildlife Interview - 1/31/16(Click here for Interview)
Above is an interview with Commissioner of Fisheries and Wildlife, George Peterson, Chief of Trout Stocking, Ken Simmons, and Fisheries Biologist Todd Richards. The interview discusses topics such as; what is the state of wild trout in Massachusetts, what is the state of Atlantic Salmon, both sea run and landlocked in Massachusetts, and what exactly is the goal of trout stocking. In addition to this, Mr.Simmons, Peterson, and Richards discuss what exactly their job entails as well as what sort educational background each one had to have to get to where they are today. The various trout hatcheries throughout Massachusetts are discussed as well as some interesting facts about the net zero energy building the department of fisheries and wildlife works in. In addition to the scientific and more technical aspects of the interview, many good fishing spots around the state are mentioned as well. Overall the content in the interview is fascinating and filled with valuable information for people interested in not only Massachusetts cold-water fisheries, but the future of Massachusetts wild trout and salmon.
This is awesome! A lot of cool info.
ReplyDeleteI posted a link to your interview on my blog: troutstreamdaydreams.blogspot.com - hopefully you'll get some more people to listen!
Do you have plans for more podcasts in the future? It's always great to hear more about trout fishing in MA.
Really nice work!
ReplyDeleteI especially liked the questions you asked and how Todd Richards and others answered them.
