Episode 7 of the Bubba Show where we follow up the Snakehead Controversy Episode with a great discussion with the most well known angler in the entire state of Maryland and likely the entire Chesapeake Bay Watershed Mr. Eric Packard. Eric has recently been appointed by Governor Larry Hogan to be on the Sports Fisheries Advisory Commission in the state of Maryland. Eric has documented fishing over 240 days a year and over 40 species of fish during his record year; in fact he is up to 18 species just this year so far. Eric talks about the issues facing the Chesapeake Bay waters and impacts to the overall watershed. Impacts to the striper fishery or as local flatlander's in Maryland call em "rock fish". Of course we talk about the Snakehead but more so we discuss the invasive blue catfish and how that could be a bigger issue on the invasive list currently.

Bubba DOES Care about the topics in this episode as we all want to take care of the striper scene and be good stewards of God's Awesome creation in the water ways up and down the entire east coast of the US. Bubba DOES Care about keeping commercial fisherman accountable as we talk about a Canadian company potentially decimating the menhaden for their fish oil business; the menhaden are a major source of bait fish for fish in the bay waters.

Let's ALL take a listen to this episode and take a pledge to do our Bubba part in keeping the Chesapeake Bay Waters a great resource for our children's children to enjoy. Bubba DOES care.
