Free Webinar On Striped Bass Management: Hooked On Science

Want to know more about striped bass management from the perspective of some of those who study striped bass on a day-to-day basis?  The next seminar being presented through Rutgers Cooperative Extension as part of their Marine Extension Program Seminar Series (MEPSS) is titled Striped Bass Management: Hooked on Science, and will be held on Monday, April 26 from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

The featured speakers will be Dr. Katie Drew (Stock Assessment Team Lead) and Emilie Franke (Fishery Management Plan Coordinator) from the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC). They will be teaming-up to deliver the presentation focusing on the latest science, what we still need to learn about this critically important gamefish, and what ASMFC and anglers alike are doing to restore the population to a healthy and sustainable state.
