054 - From ”Why, Oh Why!” to YY in the Battle Against Invasives with Dr. Dan Schill

In this episode of The Fisheries Podcast I chat with Dr. Dan Schill about some interesting work he is researching in the Western U.S. He and his collaborators have implemented a technique that reverses the sex of Brook Trout and then crosses those fish to create YY, super male fish which are then stocked into waters to create male-only progeny with wild fish. Make sense? He explains it much better than me. He also talks briefly of his progress with applying this technique to Walleye and Common Carp. Enjoy!
