This is absolutely devastating. "The University of Maine System, which oversees Maine Sea Grant, said it was notified Friday night that NOAA was terminating a four-year agreement for funding, leaving 20 employees and the Sea Grant’s programming in limbo." www.pressherald.com/2025/03/01/m...

I help manage and study fisheries in Wisconsin, with the goal of making fishing better. It would be impossible without federal colleagues, partnerships, programs, funding, and regulations. Here’s a small sampling of what they do. Let’s not discard every cog and wheel without understanding their role

Would love to see some “big names” in fishing/outdoor media do the same. Scientists certainly have a role in this, but skeptical users of the resource are more likely to be convinced by a fishing guide or tv host explaining how this will affect their ability to fish/hunt/hike/camp/etc. 🐟🐠🎣 #SciComm

Today's #25DaysOfFishmas is the Bluegill. A popular sportfish that makes a tasty meal! Bluegill and other Lepomis species will likely be one of the winners in a warmer Wisconsin future.
