Quarter 2 Hunting, Fishing, and Conservation Policy Update – Federal Legislation, Fisheries Management & Public Lands   Narrative: In this Q2 federal policy roundup for hunters, anglers, and conservation advocates, we dive deep into the latest developments shaping the future of hunting, fishing, public lands, and forest management.   Hunting and Public Lands Policy with Taylor Schmitz First up, Director of Federal Relations Taylor Schmitz breaks down key federal policy shifts impacting sportsmen and women. From new Department of the Interior appointments to controversial proposals around public land sales, Taylor explains what these developments mean for hunting access, land conservation, and the broader outdoor community. Learn why Kate McGregor's return and Brian Nesvik's nomination matter to hunters and anglers, and why the upcoming congressional schedule is critical to follow.   Fishing and Fisheries Management with Chris Horton Next, Senior Director of Fisheries Policy Chris Horton joins to discuss top federal priorities affecting fishing and recreational anglers. He covers major legislation like the reauthorization of the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund and the Marine Fisheries Habitat Protection Act, along with the impact of shifting ocean conditions and the growing need for smarter fisheries management. Chris emphasizes collaboration between federal and state agencies and encourages all anglers to stay informed and active in fishing policy debates.   Forest Management and Timber Policy with John Culclasure To close out the episode, Senior Director of Forestry Policy John Culclasure provides an update on the Fix Our Forests Act and its implications for wildlife habitat, forest access, and timber production. He highlights how responsible forest management supports both conservation and hunting opportunities, while also touching on national security concerns tied to domestic timber supply. In addition, he discusses how state-level policies are affecting access to public lands for the hunting and fishing community.   Key Takeaways for Hunters and Anglers: Federal hunting and fishing policy is being shaped by new leadership at the Department of the Interior. Congress is tackling big-ticket items like public land sales that could impact millions of acres used for hunting and fishing. Reauthorization of the Sport Fish Restoration Fund is a major win for recreational fishing and boating access. Fisheries legislation aims to protect marine habitats and support sustainable sportfishing. Forest policy reform through the Fix Our Forests Act is crucial for maintaining habitat, access, and wildlife conservation. Misinformation around forest management could threaten future access for sportsmen. Domestic timber markets face challenges that could impact long-term forest health and hunting grounds. Active engagement by the hunting and fishing community is essential to protect our outdoor heritage and public lands.   Get the FREE Sportsmen's Voice e-publication in your inbox every Monday: www.congressionalsportsmen.org/newsletter                Sign up for FREE legislative tracking through CSF's Tracking the Capitols tool: www.congressionalsportsmen.org/tracking-the-capitols/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, we chat to Honourable Shane Jones, member of the NZ government and the Minister for Oceans and Fisheries, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Resources, Associate Minister of Finance, and Associate Minister for Energy. Shane entered Parliament in 2005 and joined New Zealand First as an MP in 2017. As a proud born and bred Northlander, Shane has always asked the tough questions, identified policy solutions, and accelerated implementation in his political life …and has been a very vocal supporter of the mining industry, including the possibility of seabed mining. He very much sees New Zealand's own natural resources as a pathway to economic prosperity, creating regional wealth and jobs.  On the podcast, we discuss what the mining industry means to NZ, the policies the government have, and are looking to implement to make the industry more attractive and why companies should invest into NZ's mining industry and much more. KEY TAKEAWAYS The New Zealand government, under the leadership of Shane Jones, is committed to revitalising the mining industry, reversing previous bans on oil and gas New Zealand has developed a Critical Minerals List and a mineral strategy aimed at restoring pride in the natural resources sector The introduction of Fast Track legislation aims to streamline the environmental permitting process for mining projects, allowing for quicker allocation of permits  A $200 million co-investment fund has been established to encourage both local and international investment in the mining sector, addressing concerns about potential future government changes BEST MOMENTS "I believe a lot of the climate change hysteria is actually going to wreck Western economies unless we restore some balance to it."  "We've got a kind of figurative Sahara desert of iron sands resource, largely in the ocean."  "Any economy that races ahead, demonises, cancels its fossil fuels industry without an affordable strategy... is dicing with economic calamity."  "No one enjoys a perfect history. So what we've got to do is ensure that mining as it goes forward is strongly defended."

David He, partner at Gunderson Dettmer sits down with Jeremy Au to dissect Southeast Asia's shifting startup and legal terrain. From the fallout of the eFishery scandal to the rise of ESG compliance and convertible notes, they explore how investor behavior and founder strategies are evolving. The discussion highlights governance gaps, tougher diligence, and why regional funding optimism may have stalled again. 07:12 E-Fishery Scandal as a Southeast Asian Theranos: David compares eFishery's collapse to Theranos—highlighting financial mismanagement, weak controls, and how one scandal can shake an entire region's credibility. 10:25 Due Diligence Now Takes Months, Not Weeks: Term sheets are no longer quick investors stretch due diligence timelines, run legal and commercial checks in parallel, and uncover more issues late in the process. 12:38 Surge in Use of Convertible Notes: Investors increasingly prefer convertible notes for their downside protection and maturity leverage, especially during uncertain market conditions. 19:15 ESG & Compliance Burden Rising for Founders: Startups now face investor-mandated ESG, AML, and governance standards originally meant for large institutions—often without the internal capacity to manage them. 24:32 Tariffs Trigger Global Uncertainty, Slow Exits: Trump-era tariffs hit Indonesia and Vietnam, affecting investor confidence and delaying IPOs and M&A despite startups themselves not being directly impacted. 27:11 Philippines Up, Indonesia Down: The Philippines is gaining momentum with underexposure and English fluency, while Indonesia cools down from overinvestment and post-eFishery fallout. 30:05 Down Rounds Are Less Stigmatized: Founders and investors alike are more open to valuation markdowns, with flexible deal terms helping break the deadlock in difficult fundraising climates.

Wednesday, May 21 -  Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including a focus on added value of producing for farmer's markets, how Brooke Rollins and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are working together for a healthier America and a focus on supporting local farmers, and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association's problems with the government over land. Next, Doug introduces us to Ryan McPherson, owner of Glidden Point Oyster Farms in Edgecomb, Maine. Ryan got his start in fisheries and looking for a way to stay on the water, so when the opportunity to take over the oyster farm (which was established in 1987) arose in 2015, Ryan went for it. Glidden Point Oysters are grown slowly, and in the nutrient-rich depths of the Damariscotta River, a world class growing environment. Their oysters are renowned for their heavy shell, and beautiful appearance. They start from seed and grow them in upwellers and floating bags on the surface of the river until they reach the appropriate size to be harvested.  Plus, all Glidden Point oysters are harvested by hand, and often by scuba diver. They touch their oysters every step of the way, and it's the care they take, whether it's grading seed, diving, or culling, that produces a premium oyster they're proud to share with others, and proud to call their own. When it comes to aquaculture, things move very quickly with a lot more dynamics to the process. You can learn more about Glidden Point Oyster Farms at GliddenPoint.com. Finishing up this episode of the American Family Farmer podcast, Farmer Doug opines about the state of the country as it pertains to the current administration and what it means for farmers and anyone in agri-business.Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Fallout continues from yesterday's summit and the announcement of a deal between the UK and EU – or is it fair to call it 'fallout' as, despite criticism over the deal from Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch, has the public got Brexit fatigue?  James Heale and Michael Simmons join Patrick Gibbons to talk about the reaction to the deal. Fisheries has taken up most discussion but Michael points out a lesser talked about commitment to energy policy. And, with the government keen to talk about it in tandem with recent deals with India and the US – and Gulf states soon, according to Rachel Reeves this morning – what's the political narrative around the summit? Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

In this episode of Waypoints, we return to the heart of one of the most important — and complex — conservation stories in the world of flyfishing: the state of Montana's Big Hole and the rivers of southwest Montana. Nearly two years after the New York Times released an article focusing on declining fish populations throughout the region, recent data from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks suggests that there may be signs of hope and recovery for wild trout. But with mixed messages, differing perspectives, and strong emotions still swirling throughout the guide, outfitting, and recreational angling communities, the real story is far from simple. Joined by  Jim Olsen – Fisheries Biologist for Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks in the Big Hole River basin – and by Eric Thorson – co-owner of Sunrise Fly Shop in Melrose, Montana – host Jim Klug digs into the facts, revisits the concerns, and examines what's really going on beneath the surface of these legendary waters.Why should this topic matter to anglers from outside of Montana and across the country? Because what happens in the Big Hole doesn't stay in the Big Hole. These rivers are ground zero for a larger conversation about climate change, water use, fishing pressure, wild trout resilience, and the future of angling in the American West. Whether you've fished these waters for decades, or plan to someday cast a line in Montana, this episode offers critical insight into how science, community, and conservation are colliding in real time — and what that means for the future of wild trout.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

Mendocino's Bull Kelp Disaster Captured on FilmFor years, KZYX news has covered the devastation of the bull kelp forest off the Mendocino Coast, and its resulting impacts, including purple urchin barrens, the loss of the abalone and red urchin fisheries, the economic impacts on coastal businesses and local communities, and the related demise of the sunflower sea stars. Sequoias of the Sea is a documentary about this bull kelp disaster. Directed by Natasha Benjamin and Anna Blanco, it will be featured nationally and internationally at a long list of film festivals and climate conferences. And it's showing at the Mendocino Film Festival on May 30th.  It looks back at the last seven years and what amounted to an emergency response from the local community. Most of the people featured in the documentary live and work on the coast in a variety of professions. They all have one thing in common: bring back the kelp. Benjamin and Blanco spoke to KZYX about their inspiration for the documentary. In the film, they cover many aspects of the story and engage with scientists, local tribes, fishermen, and sport divers.  For more information, you can access their website at sequoiasofthesea.org

From acidic excrement that eats through bridge coating to nesting near roadways causing accidents, cormorants have been known to create some problems for humans here in Oregon. But for more than a decade now, researchers at Oregon State University have been using these diving birds to better understand oceans in Oregon and around the world. As recently featured in Audubon Magazine, by strapping sensors to birds, researchers are able to chart and understand data around underwater terrains, temperatures and more. Rachael Orben is an assistant professor at OSU’s Department of Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation. Jim Lerczak is the associate dean for research and a professor at OSU’s College of Earth Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences. They both join us to share more on what we’ve been able to learn from cormorants.

In this second episode of our two-part Christmas Island series, Waypoints shifts the focus from the history and angling evolution of the atoll to hands-on fishing specifics. Host Jim Klug continues his conversation with Bryant Dunn of Christmas Island Lodge, diving deep into the angling experience itself. They address and answer the most common questions from anglers and travelers — from navigating the atoll's massive, diverse flats to targeting bonefish, giant trevally, triggerfish, and other prized species. They also discuss gear recommendations, fly selection, travel logistics, and how the remoteness of Christmas Island shapes both the fishing and the overall adventure.Whether you're planning your first visit to the atoll or dreaming of a return trip at some point in the future, this episode delivers an inside look at what it takes to succeed on the flats of Kiritimati. Bryant and Jim share expert tips on preparing for the conditions, working effectively with local guides, and maximizing every opportunity in one of saltwater flyfishing's most legendary settings. Packed with helpful advice, destination insight, and deep local knowledge, this conversation is the ultimate guide to gearing up, traveling smart, and making the most of a trip to Christmas Island.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

Wayne Reichle – who's been in the fishing business his whole life – had never heard of the Chevron doctrine. That's the two-step legal test that courts used for the past 40 years to decide whether a federal agency had the authority to make a regulation. "No idea," said Reichle, president of New Jersey-based Lund's Fisheries. "Myself, and many, many fellow fishermen had no idea what the Chevron doctrine was." That changed after a group of fishermen challenged a federal regulation requiring the herring industry to pay for onboard federal observers. "I think there's quite a few that know what the Chevron doctrine is today," Reichle said. This season on UnCommon Law, we're exploring the limits of agency power. To what extent are federal agencies authorized to create and implement regulations that aren't explicitly mandated by Congress? And what happens when an agency goes too far? In this episode, the story of the fishermen who fought back. Featuring: Wayne Reichle, president of Lund's Fisheries Jeff Kaelin, director of sustainability and government relations at Lund's Fisheries Ryan Mulvey, counsel with the Cause of Action Institute Erica Fuller, senior counsel with the Conservation Law Foundation Leif Axelsson, captain of the Dyrsten fishing vessel Greg Stohr, Supreme Court reporter for Bloomberg News *** Hosted and produced by Matthew S.

On this episode of the Kentucky Afield Podcast we're joined by Jay Herrala, a biologist who specializes in moving-water fisheries for the KDFWR. It's the best time of the year to stream fish in Kentucky, so we're definitely talking about opportunities. Additionally, we've had some unique rainfall in the state this year, so we'll pick Jay's brain on the affects of flooding on the fisheries. Then, of course, it's Derby week... So we'll get Lee's thoughts on the big race in before the podcast ends!

In this episode of NDO Podcast, recorded in the new Jamestown aquatic nuisance species lab, we visit with Ben Holen, Department ANS coordinator, and Mason Hammer, ANS biologist, about ANS in North Dakota, the impacts to our lakes and rivers, and the Department's extensive prevention measures.

This episode of the China Global podcast discusses evolving disputes between China and South Korea, specifically regarding their unresolved maritime boundary in the Yellow Sea. There is a long history of fishing disputes between the two countries in the Provisional Measures Zone (or PMZ) of the Yellow Sea, which is where their exclusive economic zones overlap. Although China and South Korea have engaged in negotiations over the years, they have yet to come to an agreement on their boundaries in the Yellow Sea.Taking advantage of the persisting disagreement on delimitation of maritime borders, China has employed gray zone tactics in the Yellow Sea to expand its territorial presence in the region. In the most recent dispute, China installed a new steel structure in the PMZ, causing a maritime standoff between Chinese and Korean coast guards.To discuss recent developments in the Yellow Sea and China's broader gray zone tactics in the maritime realm, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Ray Powell, the Director of SeaLight, a maritime transparency project at Stanford University's Gordian Knot Center for National Security Innovation. Ray is also the co-host of the Why Should We Care About the Indo-Pacific podcast, and a 35-year veteran of the US Air Force. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:43] Strategic Significance of the Yellow Sea[03:12] Expanding Chinese Control in the Region[04:08] Chinese Maritime Installations [05:20] Are these installations found in other regions?[06:00] Gray Zone Tactics in the South China Sea [08:20] Maritime Militia Activity in the Yellow Sea[09:02] 2001 Korea-China Fisheries Agreement[10:34] Testing the Waters with South Korea[12:09] Navigating South Korean Policy Dilemmas[13:48] Rehabilitating China's Imagine in Korea[15:14] Environmental Issues in Disputed Waters[17:18] Countering Chinese Activities in the Yellow Sea[19:40] SeaLight Tracking and Deciphering Chinese Actions

Fisheries: In this episode, we see the surprising news that the U.S. government is opening up parts of its marine protected areas (MPAs) to commercial fishing. This rollback of protections in the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument has sparked debate about the future of sustainable fisheries and marine biodiversity. Ocean: We explore what this decision signals for global ocean governance and why it could undermine years of conservation progress. Focusing on political motivations and international implications, we ask the hard questions: Are MPAs truly protected if they can be so easily undone? And how should ocean advocates respond?

Rebuilding fisheries in Canada: Capelin biomass is only at 16% of its pre-collapse level, which spells disaster for northern cod's recovery. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin breaks down the troubling state of Canada's east coast fisheries. With DFO ignoring science-based recommendations, capelin is being harvested despite dangerously low numbers—and the ripple effects are hurting northern cod and entire coastal ecosystems. Northern cod cannot recover without capelin, their primary prey, yet management plans still treat these species separately. Andrew explores the science behind this ecological link, why Oceana Canada is calling for an immediate pause on the capelin fishery, and how outdated management approaches are failing both fish and fishers. It's time for bold leadership, honest science communication, and smarter fisheries policy.
