Bottom trawling is one of the most widely used - and most destructive - fishing practices in the world. Dragging heavy nets across the seabed damages fragile ecosystems, depletes global fish supplies, and puts the livelihoods of small-scale fishers at risk.In this episode of The Food Chain, Rumella Dasgupta speaks to John Worthington, one of the last remaining fishermen in Fleetwood, UK, who fears a proposed ban on bottom trawling in Marine Protected Areas could end his business. Fisheries economist Dr Rashid Sumaila of the University of British Columbia explains the global consequences of trawling, from overfishing to illegal and unregulated catches.On the coast of West Africa, Aissata Daouda Dia, Head of Advocacy at Blue Ventures, tells us hom much coastal communities rely on local catch. Nana Kweigyah from the Canoe and Fishing Gear Owners Association of Ghana, describes how foreign industrial trawlers are devastating coastal communities. And in Singapore, Adrian Poon of the Cinnamon Group explores the challenges of sourcing fish sustainably in a market dominated by cheaper, trawled seafood.Producer: Izzy Greenfield Image: Getty

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I'm joined by Dave Miller to dive into one of the most heated conservation debates facing our waters today overspray of herbicides in our local bodies of water. We tackle a hot-button issue shaking up the fishing and conservation community: The decision to use diquat dibromide—a federally approved herbicide that's banned in the European Union—to combat the spread of subaquatic grass has sparked serious concerns. Critics warn it is creating ecological disasters, killing fish in lakes, making people sick, and even causing the deaths of pets.A recent opinion piece slammed the move as reckless and undemocratic, arguing that spraying chemicals into public waterways risks fish kills, long-term ecological damage, and public health concerns. Critics point out the decision was made quietly by federal and state agencies, without town halls, public consent, or community input, raising serious questions about accountability.Even more concerning, this is part of a pilot program that could expand to other states if considered successful—potentially setting a precedent for how invasive species are managed nationwide. Meanwhile, alternatives such as mechanical removal and less toxic treatments have largely been overlooked. Parkinsonism relating to intoxication with glyphosate: a case Report: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331317400_Parkinsonism_relating_to_intoxication_with_glyphosate_A_case_report Glyphosate Exposure Associated with Human Neurodegenerative Disorders: A Scoping Review: https://www.scirp.org/pdf/jbbs2024147_13901129.pdf  Dave Miller on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davemillerfishing/  Dave Miller website: https://l.instagram.com/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdavemillerfishing.com%2F%3Ffbclid%3DPAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAac_PqZE74JW2U5Z9QT-9AYXPlXuE6r27JeCwxi9v9kmocBrI4uey8nBtxt3zg_aem_hNSsX_SsybYNLI_1YxKSxA&e=AT1zGSItFBqz8Z_S0JFJAevn7rC_vd2PhDiWQrjiVx7CpMcHulAEHn1oCSl1zURX5EqR3B3COPIDXQGGRKM5Xcl5xD2A0qlIGwBbng  Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast  Fishing the DMV now has a website: https://www.fishingthedmv.com/ If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at fishingtheDMV@gmail.com Please checkout our Patreon Sponsors Catoctin Creek Custom Rods: https://www.facebook.com/CatoctinCreekCustomRods Jake's bait & Tackle website:                      http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/ Tiger Crankbaits on Facebook!! https://www.facebook.com/tigercrankbaits Jake's bait & Tackle website:                      http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/  Fishing the DMV Facebook page: Support the show

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I'm joined by Brian Collins, an Eastern Shore native and administrator of the Facebook group Menhaden – Little Fish, Big Deal!. Together, we tackle one of the Chesapeake Bay's most pressing and controversial topics: the fight over menhaden.Often called “the most important fish in the sea,” menhaden are vital to the Bay's ecosystem—filtering water and serving as a primary food source for striped bass, osprey, bluefish, and countless other species. But menhaden are also the target of one of the largest industrial fisheries on the East Coast, with millions harvested each year and processed into fish oil and animal feed.Brian and I dig into the clash between the billion dollar Omega Protein corporation, and conservation advocates who warn that removing too many menhaden is weakening the striped bass population and destabilizing the Bay's food web. From quota battles and Bay-specific harvest caps to the rise of ecosystem-based management, we unpack the science, politics, and passion fueling this long-standing conflict.If you care about the future of striped bass, the health of the Chesapeake Bay, or just want to understand how one small fish can spark such a big fight—this is an episode you won't want to miss.Menhaden-Little Fish, Big Deal Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/765772041406313 Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast  Fishing the DMV now has a website: https://www.fishingthedmv.com/ If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at fishingtheDMV@gmail.com  Please checkout our Patreon Sponsors Catoctin Creek Custom Rods: https://www.facebook.com/CatoctinCreekCustomRods Jake's bait & Tackle website:                      http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/ Tiger Crankbaits on Facebook!! https://www.facebook.com/tigercrankbaits Jake's bait & Tackle website:                      http://www.jakesbaitandtackle.com/ Fishing the DMV Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Arensbassin/?ref=pages_you_manage Fishing the DMV Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/fishingthedmv/?utm_medium=copy_link   #bassfishing #fishingtheDMV #fishingtips Support the show

Shark science isn't just about understanding biology, it's about tackling the global forces that threaten these species. In this episode of Beyond Jaws, research scientist Chris Mull explains how international trade has become a powerful driver of unsustainable shark and ray fisheries. From luxury markets for shark fins to emerging demands for meat and cartilage, trade dynamics are reshaping conservation challenges worldwide. Shark conservation must consider the economics and policies behind fishing, not just the science in the water. Chris describes his work using phylogenetic comparative methods and applied research to uncover how trade pressures intersect with species traits, creating unique risks for different sharks and rays. Along with hosts Andrew Lewin and Dr. David Ebert, Chris shares insights into what the data reveals about overexploitation, the complexity of global markets, and how science can inform better international regulations.

Often described as "the gold standard" for fiscal conservatism in Congress, the National Taxpayers Union rated him the best vote for taxpayers in the House four times, most recently in 2020. Citizens Against Government Waste recently named him as one of the perfect votes in the House fighting wasteful government spending. McClintock is a member of the House Judiciary Committee where he serves as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement and also serves on the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government. He is a senior member of the House Natural Resources Committee where he serves on the Subcommittee on Federal Lands, which he chaired from 2015 to 2018, and on the Subcommittee on Water, Wildlife, and Fisheries, which he chaired from 2011 to 2015. The Congressman is also a member of the House Budget Committee and has proposed major fiscal reforms to curb unauthorized appropriations, control mandatory spending, balance the budget and protect the nation's credit. Prior to his election to Congress, McClintock served 22 years in the California legislature, where he became one of its most recognized conservative leaders. He twice received the Republican nomination for State Controller, narrowly missing election in 2002 by 23/100ths of one percent. He ran as the conservative standard bearer for Governor in California's historic recall election in 2003. - Addison McDowell proudly represents North Carolina's 6th Congressional District. Motivated by the tragic loss of his younger brother, Luke, to a fentanyl overdose, McDowell's top priority in Congress is to tackle the drug crisis and strengthen border security to protect families and communities from the dangers posed by illegal immigration. Addison currently serves on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, the Natural Resources Committee, and the Budget Committee. Through these committee assignments, he is fighting to make sure the critical needs of North Carolina's Sixth District are met. Prior to Congress, Addison's public service included serving on staff for Congressman (now U.S. Senator) Ted Budd and Congressman Richard Hudson, where he spent each day helping constituents in need. Addison earned his Bachelors of Arts degree in Political Science and Government from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. During this time, he met his wife, Rachel, through YoungLife Ministry. A native of Lexington, North Carolina, Addison and Rachel now reside in Davie County, where they are raising their two daughters and are active in their local church.

(Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. This is episode six of Aba aba and the sixth thing I like about Gymnarchus niloticus is their diet. We have talked a bit about this is the past, but we will add a bit more detail of what Aba abas like to eat in this episode. I have a guest co-host with me this week as I have had some dental work done and need help with all this talking! My husband, Georgiy, is helping me today. Welcome Georgiy, and thanks for helping me out! Georgiy: Absolutely! Hi! Kiersten: I know you've been listening to this series…right? Georgiy: Riiight… Kiersten: Of course you love it. What's your favorite thing about the Aba aba so far? Georgiy: The scientific name. Let me try to pronounce it. Gymnastic nalarcus? Kiersten: (laughs) Not even close! Gymnar-kus niloti-kus. Georgiy: (laughs) Gymnar-kus niloti-kus Kiersten: I like that too, but I like everything about the Aba aba. Can you tell our listeners what you've learned about what the Aba aba eats? Georgiy: I know they are carnivores, so they like to eat meat.  Kiersten: Definitely! Georgiy: When they are small, 2 to 3 inches in length, they eat insects found in the water and very small fish. A study done in Nigeria found that 36% of juvenile diets were made up of aquatic insects.  Kiersten: Really? Georgiy: Yes! 32% of the diet was made up of fish. Kiersten: Interesting. Did it say what kind of insects and fish? Georgiy: No. They looked at stomach contents of dead juveniles, so they only found small parts of the digested prey. Kiersten: Hmmm. It sounds like the juvenile Aba aba is a specialist feeder on insects? Georgiy: Yes! Exactly. Another study showed that Aba aba young that have used up their egg yolks will eat the midge larvae that are in the nests with them! The adult midges lay eggs on the grasses that the male Aba abas use to make their nests! Kiersten: Wow! That's so smart. I love it! Bring the food to you. Does their diet change as they get older? Georgiy: Yes. As they get older, and larger, they can eat bigger prey items. They will eat more fish, such as silversides, tetras, or African catfish, and add crustaceans to their diet. They will still eat insects but this makes up very little of the diet when they are adults. Kiersten: That sounds like a smart survival plan. Georgiy: Yes. The Aba aba are not competing with each other for food sources and they don't risk injury by hunting something larger than themselves. What did you feed them at the zoo? Kiersten: Ooo. Good question! We fed them silver side fish and shrimp. The nutritionist made sure we varied his diet so he got the right type of nutrients to keep him healthy. The nutrition staff made the diet for us and weighed out just the right amount of food, so he didn't get overweight, but also didn't get too hungry. He never turned his noise up at anything we offered him. It was one more thing I like about working with him. We never had to worry about him not eating. Georgiy: How did you feed him? Kiersten: This was also fun! Since his eyesight was not great, we fed him with tongs so we never had to remove decaying fish form the tank. That can get pretty gross and can be detrimental to his health. We offered him one piece at a time with tongs that were about 12 inches long. We just dipped the fish or shrimp into the water and it was only a matter of moments before he found it. Georgiy: That sounds fun. Kiersten: It was fun, but we had to be careful because if he accidental got one of our fingers he could really hurt us. When Aba abas eat their prey they suck the food into their mouths with a quick forceful suction. If you remember my bite story from last week, the popping sound, that was the suction action he used to pull the prey item into his mouth. If it had been something smaller than my arm he could have bitten off my finger. Georgiy: Whoa! Kiersten: Yep! Once an Aba aba has sucked in a prey item they clamp their mouths shut and use their bony tongue to help guide the food down their esophagus whole! Georgiy: That cool! Kiersten: It actually is pretty cool. Georgiy: How do the find their food in the wild? Kiersten: That is a great question and I will be answering that in next week's episode. Thanks for helping me out with this episode Georgiy, I really appreciate it. Georgiy: My pleasure. Thanks for having me! Kiersten: I hope you all enjoyed this episode about the Aba aba diet because it is my sixth favorite thing bout them. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about the Aba aba.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company. Original music written and performed by Katherine Camp, piano extraordinaire.

Fishing practices are facing a major overhaul, on a scale not seen for decades. Oceans and Fisheries Minister Shane Jones says his new reforms remove obstacles to growth, for the $1.5 billion dollar industry. The changes include simpler land and discard rules for fishers on monitored vessels - and the exclusion of on-board camera footage from the Official Information Act. Sport Fishing Council President Scott Macindoe says he doesn't approve of these proposed changes. "Anyone who takes these proposals seriously and takes them forward into legislation - we're staggered. Nothing of what we've offered has been taken seriously."

An overhaul of the rules will allow greater catch limits when fish are abundant and stop on-board camera footage from being made public. Oceans and Fisheries Minister Shane Jones spoke to Corin Dann.

Welcome to the new month! In this episode of AfriCan Geopardy, we explore “Building an Equitable Blue Future in Madagascar” with Dr Paubert Mahatante, Madagascar's Minister of Fisheries and BlueEconomy. Dr Mahatante, who holds a PhD in applied oceanography and lectures at Toliara University on oceanography, fisheries, and climate change, brings a rare blend of scientific insight and policyleadership to the discussion.We open with the Malagasy proverb: “A tree becomes a canoe because of the goodness of the land where it took root”—a fitting reflection of Madagascar's deep connection to its oceans and coasts. With over 5,000 km of coastline and some of the world's richest biodiversity, Madagascar's blue economy has vast potential yet faces pressing governance and sustainability challenges.Our conversation explored seabed mining, unlocking ocean economy opportunities, and addressing maritime security, highlighting how technology, strategic partnerships, patrol vessels, and even drones are transforming enforcement capacity. We also raised provocative questions on how to balance international donor interests with local priorities, and whether emerging ocean opportunities risk repeating extractive patterns of the past.Dr Mahatante responded with candour, sharing his vision of a just and inclusive blue economy, one where ocean benefits reach the people who depend on them, and where sustainability and equity are at the core.This is a powerful conversation on technology, partnerships, andcommunity-driven solutions, and why Madagascar is on the path to becoming a model for inclusive ocean governance in Africa.You won't want to miss this one!#AfriCan!

Alan Batista—a well-known striped bass angler, fishing author, and advocate from Maryland—joins the Guide Post to break down a recent run-in with enforcement that sparked serious questions about current fisheries policy. Alan was issued a ticket for allegedly targeting striped bass during a closed season despite doing nothing wrong. This episode dives deep into the reality of so-called “no-targeting” regulations: what they actually mean, how they're enforced (or not), and why they represent a dangerous precedent for recreational anglers and the future of striper conservation. With firsthand experience, Alan sheds light on the confusion and contradictions in enforcement, and ASGA breaks down why these policies fail both fish and fishermen.A must-listen for anyone who fishes for striped bass—or cares about common sense in conservation.

Calvin sits down and updates listeners on local weather and lake conditions. Calvin also explains some techniques he would use during this time of year. Calvin provides an overview of the events that have occurred in Bassmaster and MLF over the last week.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bass-cast-radio--1838782/support.

In 1995, an international row broke out between Canada and Spain over fishing quotas. It started with gunfire and ended with a deal.The dispute began after Canada set up restrictions to protect fish stocks, including the turbot. A 320km (200 mile) controlled zone was placed around the country's north Atlantic coast. Fishermen also had to stick to quotas. But, according to Canada, some boats from the European Union were catching far more turbot than had been agreed. As a warning, the coastguard chased off one Spanish trawler, shooting machine gunfire over the bow and arresting the crew. But Spanish officials were furious and denied any wrongdoing. The Turbot War had begun. Brian Tobin was Canada's Minister for Fisheries and Oceans. He tells Jane Wilkinson about the part he played in the dispute.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Considering I was raised in the flatwoods of Florida, when I think of fishing in the saltwater I really don't think of anywhere else but the state I call home. However, the ocean is vast and the fisheries are connected maybe more than you realize. Some fish even migrate similar to ducks down the flyways in the fall. This week we sat down with Steve Brewster to discuss the issues fishermen are facing in North Carolina and how they are already affecting fishermen up and down the Atlantic coast, Florida included.

Chris Jordan has some unwelcome news for the watershed and fisheries restoration movement. Restoring robust populations of salmonids and other fish species in degraded rivers and wetlands is much more complex than we could have ever imagined, and we've been doing it wrong for decades. Most of us, even those of us who view our fishing and our rivers as a kind of religion, don't even know what a truly healthy river looks like. But Chris also has some welcome news, though, and it's the subject of today's podcast: we know how to restore functioning watersheds for coldwater fisheries now, and it's imminently achievable. Real watershed restoration that can last and bring back healthy cold water fisheries – it's called “process-based restoration” – is the future. It's not just about removing archaic dams and putting curves and woody debris back into broken and degraded creeks. It's about beavers, muck and mire and willow thickets, floodplains and aquifers, wildfire and wetlands, gravity and shade. It is, as Chris has studied and implemented successfully for the past few decades, about “helping rivers do their jobs with a lighter hand and a larger scope” and recognizing that the messiest natural systems are the very best at producing the strongest and healthiest fisheries. Join us- 100% guaranteed, you'll see your favorite rivers and creeks in an entirely new light.   The Podcast & Blast with Hal Herring is brought you by Backcountry Hunters & Anglers and presented by Silencer Central, with additional support from Decked, Dometic, and Filson.  Join Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, the voice for your wild public lands, waters, and wildlife to be part of a passionate community of hunter-angler-conservationists.  BHA.
