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.

The trade in shark liver oil is an invisible threat to sharks. Not only is there limited research on the topic, but liver oil is notoriously difficult to track and trace. Enter Dr Madeline Green, molecular fisheries ecologist and Principle Investigator of the Forensic Fisheries Lab at the University of Tasmania. Madi is working to apply protocols from the tracing of olive oil to extract DNA from shark liver oil samples, in order to identify species and help monitor this complex trade. In this episode, we learn all about Madi's research, and how the trade in liver oil is presenting a significant threat to deep-water sharks.

New Zealand's pay equity claim system has been cancelled -- and all thirty-three claims will be started again from scratch. The goal of pay equity legislation was to give deals to work forces that have been historically undervalued because the workforce is majority women -- and this involved making comparisons between different jobs, like a librarian and a fisheries officer. Fiona McMillan is a partner at law firm Lane Neave - and until last week, she was working on pay equity claims like this.
Staff and budget cuts at local offices of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), are degrading weather forecasts and adding chaos to New England's commercial fisheries. Proposed additional cuts could throw fisheries, scientific research and weather forecasting into further disarray, threatening lives and livelihoods throughout the region.

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

This week's meeting again underscored the need for further research about the status of menhaden in the bay.
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.

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.

BIM has once again partnered with aquaculture accelerator Hatch Blue to deliver the 2025 Aquatech Innovation Studio - a free, intensive six-day programme supporting early-stage aquatech companies through expert mentoring, investor readiness training, and technical development. The initiative forms part of BIM's Aquatech Development Programme, supported by the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund (2021-2027). The BIM Innovation Studio aims to strengthen Ireland's reputation as a global hub for aquatech, supporting the growth of a high-potential sector already contributing over €200 million to the Irish economy annually. Now in its seventh year, the studio has helped over 60 companies scale, with participants going on to raise investment, create more than 200 hi-tech jobs, and launch innovative solutions for sustainable aquaculture. The Innovation Studio welcomes applications from companies working in areas such as artificial intelligence, marine engineering, water quality monitoring, genetics, feed additives, and pharmaceuticals - any innovation that contributes to sustainable seafood production and ocean health. "BIM's commitment to transforming Ireland into a global leader in Aquatech continues with the launch of the BIM Innovation Studio 2025", said Damien Toner, BIM Aquatech Business Manager. "Participants will gain invaluable insights into the sector, alongside exposure to opportunities that will help them thrive in a rapidly evolving global market. The Irish aquatech sector is set for exponential growth in the coming years, and the BIM Aquatech Innovation Studio 2025 is central to ensuring Ireland remains at the forefront of this emerging global industry." Applications are open until 18 July 2025. The studio will run from 13 to 18 October at the PorterShed in Galway. Several participating companies will be selected to pitch at the BlueAmbition25 Conference on 23 October in Dublin, where the BIM Aquatech Business of the Year 2025 will also be announced. "The BIM Aquatech Innovation Studio provides a springboard for aquatech innovations, connecting Studio participants with industry experts, mentors, and investors worldwide," said Jessica Giannoumis, Hatch Blue's Aquatech Community Manager for Ireland. "Whether it's sensor technology, alternative seafood solutions, or water management strategies, this is the ultimate opportunity to refine your aquatech vision." Each of the eight to ten successful applicants will be matched with dedicated mentors and given access to Hatch Blue's global network of aquaculture and investment experts. One example of studio success is Auranta, a Dublin-based biotech company, transforming global aquaculture with its innovative fish feed products designed to enhance the immunity and gut health of species like shrimp and salmon. In recognition of its pioneering contributions, Auranta was honoured with the BIM Aquatech Business of the Year award in 2024. The Innovation Studio aligns with the goals of Food Vision 2030, supporting Ireland's ambition to become a world leader in aquaculture innovation and attract new talent and investment to the sector. According to BIM's Business of Seafood 2023 report, Ireland's seafood-tech sector continues to expand, with company numbers growing from 42 in 2016 to 69 in 2022, and turnover rising from €86 million to €226 million during that time.

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?

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we're diving into one of Maryland's most underrated yet powerhouse fisheries—the Conowingo Reservoir—with none other than MAKBF Champion Mickey Pfortsch. Last year, Mickey took the title with over 95 inches of fish, and this year, he did it again with 89.75 inches—proving this place is no fluke!Now, ask most anglers what the largest freshwater impoundment in Maryland is, and they'll probably say Deep Creek Lake. But here's a fun fact: Conowingo Reservoir actually spans over 5,000 acres along the mighty Susquehanna River, making it a true angler's paradise.From hard-fighting smallmouth that crush crankbaits on rocky points, to trophy largemouth lurking in submerged timber and grass, Conowingo offers a smorgasbord of bass fishing opportunities. And if panfish are your thing? Get ready for monster bluegill, crappie, and a whole cast of overlooked heavy hitters.So grab your gear and join us as we break down Mickey's tournament-winning tactics, talk kayak fishing strategy, and explore what makes this hidden gem one of the best bass fisheries in the Mid-Atlantic.

Tulla Fianna Fáil Deputy Timmy Dooley has visited Killbegs Fishery Harbour Centre in Donegal this week for the first of several stakeholder engagements as Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine with special responsibility for Fisheries. Ahead of the General Election, six fishing representative organisations called for eight actions to be implemented by the Government including a renogotiation of the Common Fisheries Policy and the safeguarding of fishing stocks. Deputy Dooley says a scheme is on the way to make funding available for pier and slipway upgrades.

[RE-UPLOAD FROM JUNE 16, 2021]Dr. Jean Tsao (Twitter: @JTsao1) from MSU's Department of Fisheries and Wildlife talks about everybody's "favorite" ticks! We also chatted about how she became an expert in this group of arthropods and she shared this list of resources with us: Michigan Department of Health & Human Services (MDHHS) page on tick-borne diseasesCurrent MDHHS Lyme disease risk map (to which Jean's lab has contributed much of the tick data)MDHHS document that summarizes the tick and disease risk trends over the last 5 yearsMDHHS's webpage for ordering tick warning signs, tick ID cards, and tick collection/submission kits for tick ID [only]. You can also submit photos of ticks instead of the ticks themselves and probably get a faster turnaround time on the ID.Here is the link to The Tick App, a mobile health app Jean and colleagues developed to improve tick prevention - both through outreach/education about ticks and tick prevention, but also through community science regarding both improving tick prevention practices as well as monitoring for invasive ticks. Here's a recent write-up about the app from MSU Today. Watch this episode on YouTube here!You can follow Bug Talk on Instagram and Twitter @bugtalkpodcast, and YouTube @bugtalk6645
In this episode of The Sportsmen's Voice Podcast, host Fred Bird is joined once again by Senior Director of Fisheries Policy Chris Horton to break down House Bill 443—a game-changing piece of legislation aimed at improving recreational fishing data collection in Georgia. They dive into why federal fishery management systems are falling short, and how state-led efforts can lead to more accurate, real-time data, longer fishing seasons, and better policy decisions for anglers. The conversation covers everything from slot limits and discard mortality to the impact of artificial reefs and post-release mortality rates. If you care about sustainable fishing, angler rights, and better fishing seasons, this episode is a must-listen. Key Takeaways: House Bill 443: This bill introduces a saltwater fishing license fee to fund improved data collection. All About Data: Federal data collection methods lack the real-time accuracy needed for today's fishery management, while state-level management allows for localized, angler-driven decisions. Accurate angler reporting = longer, better fishing seasons. Poor estimates of fish harvested, as well as those that are released, can cut seasons short. Total mortality: Total mortality includes released fish – a percentage of which are expected to die. High release rates and slot limits can increase discard mortality.

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.

How often do you get to hear from someone who's 102 years old, sharp as a tack, and still living life with passion and purpose? In this episode of Growing Older with Gusto, host Gail Zugerman sits down with Dr. Robert Farber, a retired neonatologist pediatrician from Toronto, Canada. Dr. Farber shares his secrets to a long, fulfilling life—filled with family, friendships, and a love for sports (and yes, he still plays a mean game of Bridge!). He reflects on decades of medical practice, the joys of watching his grandchildren thrive, and his thoughts on the ever-changing world. Tune in for a heartwarming and inspiring conversation with Dr. Farber—proof that growing older with gusto is all about living with love, laughter, and resilience! --- Watch the episode here Listen to the podcast here Thriving At 102: Dr. Robert Farber's Secrets To A Fulfilling Life How To Grow Older With Gusto I'm so excited because we have a very special guest on the show coming to us from Toronto, Canada. His name is Dr. Robert Farber. It's a pleasure to welcome you to the show. He has so many things to talk about. Most importantly, as most of you readers know, we love to talk to people who are growing older in a positive productive way. Dr. Farber is an incredible example of somebody who was now 102 and sharp as a tack and interesting. I'm going to stop talking because we got to talk to talk to Dr. Farber about all his secrets on how he got to where he is. Welcome to the show, Dr. Farber. How are you doing? How are things in Toronto? A little cool but bright. We're terribly worried about Trump. That could be a whole another episode. Tell me a little bit about what you like to do when you were growing up. What was like some of your favorite activities. I'm a very big sports fan. I'm still a big sports fan now. I loved fishing. My elder son and I went all over Canada in Northwest Territory and caught some big fish. What kind of fish? Is it Pike or salmon? What were you catching? We're catching mostly Pickerel. You call them Walleye. Big eye. What's the biggest fish you've ever caught? I got a recording from the Minister of Fisheries in Manitoba. It was a 48 inches Pike. It's an action release. You caught it and then you let it go. One of the reasons that you were recommended to me to be on the show is, we love talking to people like you who are navigating through life in a way that is inspirational. I wanted to ask you, what would you tell someone who's at midline about what they should be doing and enabling them to grow older without being afraid of being older? Is any advice you would give to them? What will I advise them? What did you do to reach your state? Sit back and relax. You can't do anything about faith. What did you do to stay vital throughout your life? You said you like sports. Were you actively involved in a particular sport? I'm 6 foot one and a half, so I played a little bit of college of basketball. I grew up in a small town in Canada in Brantford, Ontario. I could skate beautifully. As a matter of fact, one of my closest friends Sam Kennedy eventually became a Detroit Red Wings Star. This is hockey. You played hockey? I could play hockey. Did you any other physical activities at midlife that you enjoyed? Physical activity? Making love to my wife. You don't need anything to maintain a friendship. It just exists. How long are you married? 65 years. Dr. Farber's Career As A Pediatrician Congratulations. That's quite a milestone. I know you're a physician. What medicine did you practice? I was a pediatrician. A child's specialist. Did you specialize in sleeping disorders with kids or anything special? Yes, neonatal work, newborns. Worked with sick kids a little over for 35-40 years. What is giving you the greatest strengths as you've moved through your life aside from being a doctor? My family. Family As His Greatest Strength And Joy Tell me a little bit about your family.

An attractive new strategy for brain surgeryA Canadian team is developing minimally-invasive micro-tools for brain surgery that can be operated by magnetic fields from outside of the skull. The tools, including scalpels and forceps, will enter the cranium through small incisions, and then be controlled by focused and precise magnetic fields. Eric Diller is associate professor of mechanical and industrial engineering at the University of Toronto and his research was published in the journal Science Robotics.Animal tool use is fishyIn recent decades scientists have discovered animals from primates to birds and marine mammals can use tools — a capacity once thought to be exclusive to humans. Now scientists have discovered fish using hard surfaces to crack open hard-shelled prey and get at the meaty meal inside. The research, led by Juliette Tariel-Adam from Macquarie University, included recruiting divers and scientists from around the world to report any sightings of tool use, which led to 16 reports across five species of wrasses. The results were published in the journal Coral Reefs.Bad news — a long cold bath may be good for youFor a hardy few, soaking in cold water has long been held out as being healthful and invigorating. Well, unfortunately, the latest research suggests that they're right. Volunteers who soaked in cold water for an hour a day for a week showed improvements in autophagy, an important cellular clean-up function that typically declines with age. Kelli King is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Ottawa and was co-lead on this study, published in the journal Advanced Biology. How the unicorn of the sea uses its hornThe Narwhal is a small whale distinguished by its long spiral horn — an elongated tooth. Researchers have long speculated about what the ostentatious bit of dentition is actually for, but the elusive narwhal has, until now, been hard to study. Now scientists, including Cortney Watt from Fisheries and Oceans Canada, have used drones to learn that the horn is used in several ways: to play, explore, and forage. The research was published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science.Why your body and brain might be fighting your efforts to get and stay slimmerNew research is revealing why it's so difficult to keep weight off after you've lost it. One study in Nature found that genes in the fat cells of people who lost a significant amount of weight through bariatric surgery largely continued to behave as if they were still obese. Ferdinand von Meyenn, from ETH Zurich, said that despite these individuals becoming, in many respects, much more healthy, genes that became active during obesity remained active, and genes that were turned off, remained turned off, predisposing them to regain lost weight. In formerly obese mice, their fat cells remained much better at taking up sugars and fats. In addition, another study revealed that neurons in a primitive part of the brain hold onto memories of fat and sugar that can drive our cravings, according to a study on mice in Nature Metabolism. Guillaume de Lartigue, from the Monell Chemical Senses Center and the University of Pennsylvania, said specific neural circuits in the brain light up, depending on whether the gut received sugar or fat. Removing these neurons protected the mice from diet-induced weight gain, something de Lartigue is hoping to translate to humans to dial down impulsive eating behaviour.
Fisheries are more than just the act of catching fish—they're tightly woven into the fabric of science, activism, and community livelihoods. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, we speak with Eva van Heukelom about the many layers of fisheries management and how sustainable practices are shaped not just by data and tradition but by the legal frameworks that support them. Law plays a central role in determining how ocean resources are accessed, protected, and managed. Eva walks us through how international agreements, national regulations, and local community rights all intersect when it comes to fishing. From exclusive economic zones to the high seas, we learn what it takes to make sense of a complex global system. Whether you're a seafood lover, conservationist, or curious learner, this episode brings clarity to a subject that impacts us all.
