80 Tim Schaeffer - Executive Director, PA Fish & Boat Commission

Pennsylvania may have been named for its woodlands, but the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission believes the waters are the real attraction. Tim Schaeffer is the Executive Director of the PFBC, the agency dedicated to protecting, conserving and enhancing the Commonwealth’s aquatic resources, and providing fishing and boating opportunities for everyone. Join us as Tim describes the agency’s mission and its many public outreach initiatives - including a popular volunteer fish stocking program - and a mobile app that provides users a one-stop portal to the many activities the Keystone State’s waters have to offer.
