Professional Fishing Guide Dylan Goreman talks about fishing for Rock Fish (Bottom Fish) off the Oregon coast during the Winter months. Dylan and his clients catch Ling Cod and Black Sea Bass out of the ports of Newport and Depo Bay depending on weather and water conditions. Rock fishing is very exciting and when you find the right spot or school of fish the action can be non stop. There have been many times were Dylan has 4 to 5 fishermen hooked up and fighting fish all at the same time. This keeps everyone on board busy fighting fish, netting fish, re baiting hooks, etc. Ling Cod are the prize of the day with fish from 5 pounds to 20 pounds or more. These ugly fish have some of the most delicate and delicious meat you have ever eaten. Maybe prefer eating Ling Cod over Salmon or Halibut.

This week I chat with Emily Slesinger, a PhD candidate at Rutgers University studying Black Sea Bass and how climate change may affect that species. We talk about a handful of her projects dealing with that as well as highlight some of the great opportunities she was able to be a part of during her undergraduate years that helped lead her to the project she is working on currently. Enjoy! Main Point: Stay Curious, Stay Excited, and Be Nice to Eachother!
We are hanging out with Listener Ryan Dubay and FN Cullinary Correspondent Hugo Medeiros today and eating black sea bass tacos! We also hear about how tilapia are being used to rebuild vaginas (Yup that's a thing) and Doc Martin is with us to help us decide if our News is Fake or For reals! Enjoy
Interview from the live recorded Strictlyfishwrap Science Radio Hour on WRFR-LP in Rockland, Maine on June 14th, 2015. Host: Skylar Bayer Guest: Marissa MacMahan (pre-recorded)
This week on SciTech Now North Carolina, we dive in to black sea bass and how where they spawn can be the key to preserving them. See how citizen scientists are helping to save possibly the largest organism on earth. We ask a scientist about how we could colonize our solar system. Finally, see how monkeys and an engineered virus could one day restore color to the colorblind.
Black sea bass is a valuable North Carolina seafood, but degrading coastal nurseries threaten the population.

Black sea bass are a small, delicate fish in the grouper family. In 2000 the species were declared over-fished, but today the mid-Atlantic stock is considered rebuilt. This week on the Local Food Report, Elspeth Hay talks with a couple in Chatham who uses a traditional fishing method called weir fishing to catch black sea bass. Elspeth's shared a recipe for Thai flavored fish stew with black sea bass on her blog, Diary of a Locavore, where she's also written more about the history of the weirs. For more, check out this past article by Elspeth on weir fishing in Edible Cape Cod. You can read more about Black Sea Bass on Fishwatch.gov.
