Ep. 450: Backwoods University - Bonus Episode: Pogie Boat Update

from Bear Grease · host MeatEater

Last fall we published an episode called “Pogie Boats” where we dove into a long-standing conflict between the commercial menhaden fishing industry and the recreational fishermen, charter fishermen, and conservation community. We also promised that we would keep you updated with this issue as it progresses. Just a few days ago, three key menhaden reform bills passed the senate natural resources committee, which is a big deal, and a step towards conservation on this highly-contested issue.
