Native Fish For Tomorrow at DNR Roundtable
Four NF4T board members were invited to the Minnnesota DNR Roundtable held in January. The Roundtable brings an incredibly diverse group of stakeholders for the Outdoors and conservation. It's a great opportunity to network with like-minded folks and advocate for our native rough fish!
One of the topics for a breakout session was the work being done for Native Roughfish protection. Shannon Fisher, Fisheries Populations Monitoring and Regulations Manager with the MN DNR led the session and talked about the Rough FIsh workgroup, public surveys and agency research that has recently been done.
Other session topics included the threat of forward-facing sonar to our fisheries, a great update on Invasive Carp monitoring and plans to stop their spread, and also barotrauma concerns from targeting fish in very deep water.
