Summary

Today we’re talking with Nick Haddad about his innovative fishing conservation initiative, "Return 'Em Right," focused on boosting the survival rates of reef fish caught and released in the Gulf of Mexico. Teaming up with Florida Sea Grant, University of Florida, Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commission, NOAA, and a diverse coalition of partners, the project delivers training, equipment, and research funding to tackle depredation and release mortality issues. Moreover, it evaluates the efficacy of descending devices, ultimately promoting improved fish survival, a more robust fishery, and enriched angling experiences across the Gulf of Mexico.
