TSV Roundup Week of November 3rd, 2025

From striped bass policy to black bear hunting, Fred Bird breaks down this week’s biggest wins for America’s sportsmen. New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte officially joins the Governor’s Sportsmen’s Caucus, continuing the state’s long tradition of leadership in defending hunting and angling heritage. Fred also spotlights CSF’s new Rocky Mountain States Coordinator, Nate Serlin, and his role working with the Legislative Sportsmen's Caucuses in Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, and Wyoming. On the fisheries front, the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission decides to maintain striped bass regulations, averting unnecessary closures for thousands of saltwater anglers. Down south, Florida’s outdoor community celebrates major conservation wins, from saving the Rodman Reservoir bass fishery to reinstating a science-based black bear hunt. Fred also covers how the U.S. Senate voted to uphold science-based wildlife management, defeating an anti-hunting proposal targeting owl conservation, and explains why access without habitat is meaningless for hunters and trappers nationwide. If you care about how policy affects the woods, waters, and wildlife you love, this is your weekly must-listen briefing from the front lines of conservation.
