295 - Messages for current fisheries managers with Dr. Hal Schramm

This week, Preston sits down with retired USGS Mississippi Cooperative Research Unit leader Dr. Hal Schramm. They discuss Hal's path to get to Mississippi State University, and a handful of the many research projects he worked on during his time there. They also spend time chatting about two of Hal's special interest topics: declining catchability of bass and other species, and the importance of biologists sharing their work both with colleagues and the angling community. We hope that you enjoy this episode!

 

Main point: "Being busy is a privilege, not an excuse."
