    Erik Hoffner Mongabay and Sex with Clown Fish EP 348
    2025/01/30

    Erik is an editor for the huge environmental news site Mongabay, which has 5 bureaus around the world reporting in 6 languages daily.

    He also produces their podcasts, available in English, Spanish and now French too.

    The main show, the Mongabay Newscast, won an award for coverage of how Indigenous communities’ traditional ecological knowledge is important to conservation, as important as western science, and how these 2 are being used together more and more, https://news.mongabay.com/podcast/national-geographic-photographer-kiliii-yuyan-on-why-indigenous-peoples-are-the-best-conservationists/

    Last month we published an episode that won’t win an award because it’s not a sexy topic like that, but it is fishy:

    ‘These stories deserve to be told’: Shining a light on secretive fisheries managers

    https://news.mongabay.com/podcast/2024/12/these-stories-deserve-to-be-told-shining-a-light-on-secretive-fisheries-managers/

    There are 17 regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs) responsible for regulating the fishing of various commercially valuable species across vast swaths of the ocean. Their members meet regularly, but their decisions aren’t often well-publicized, due to a lack of journalists in attendance.

    But Mongabay reporters show up, even though they wish we didn’t: ​​“Our presence at these meetings is not really welcomed, and that’s a problem,” a staff writer said

    And on a more personal note, I was in the Galapagos reporting for Mongabay and the health of the fish and wildlife populations was incredible, big marine protected area surrounding all the islands, I saw so many big beautiful fish during our dives – fishing is allowed only with a guide and it’s all catch and release, some locals are allowed to fish for a few species

    DEIGHAN CHERRY - KLEPTOPARATISM AND JOE HENRY EP 346
    2024/11/27
    CH owes NH an apology. They had the first no lead law. FN FB Group is the best-I like that it is small. I used to belong to about a dozen fishing topic groups, quit them all. When groups gain big membership in come the AH’s with attitude-Ultralight Fishing Enthusiasts for example Fishing- warm fall good fishing Joe Henry Keep it Clean 20 min FITN 30-40 min https://kdhnews.com/kdhpressbox/bob-maindelle-bringing-a-new-fishing-lure-to-market/article_6926288a-6d96-11ef-9622-eb563d573337.html Lure story saga that lead to a combo inline spinner/slab spoon known as the White Tornado most interesting to me was the reason one sees a bit of red or fluorescent tubing on the shank of inline spinner hooks is to draw a strike at the hook rather than have them ping the blade-sometimes one does not want the drag or production expense of a dressed hook. A very detailed geek out. SteelShad Bottom Blade-a new twist on the old Silver Buddy-bass of all species, black bass or temperate bass will pick a blade bait laying flat on the bottom. It is a good lure for when baitfish like shad are experiencing cold shock die off or when white bass and so forth are smashing baitfish on the surface, a lot of crippled shad or shad parts drift down to the bottom. But to mimic a feeding shad SteelShad has a stand up version of their blade bait. The lure body can swing up and down within the head weight thus standing up on the bottom like a feeding baitfish. It gains some extra rattle too. SteelShad has a lot of great designs including glow in the dark models https://www.npr.org/2024/11/19/nx-s1-5196630/oarfish-california-japan-folklore Fish Crime: https://www.gamerefinery.com/chinese-casino-and-what-the-heck-are-fish-shooting-games/ https://www.insidehook.com/culture/fish-maw-environmental-effects-organized-crime https://riverheadlocal.com/2024/10/25/police-riverhead-man-facing-felony-charges-after-severely-beating-another-man-at-state-fishing-access-site-on-west-main-street/ KLEPTOPARATISM! -https://www.msn.com/en-au/entertainment/other/northern-sea-robin-the-bizarre-fish-with-crab-legs-it-uses-to-taste-the-seafloor/ar-AA1toiDV https://www.msn.com/en-au/entertainment/other/northern-sea-robin-the-bizarre-fish-with-crab-legs-it-uses-to-taste-the-seafloor/ar-AA1toiDV Deighan Cherry Fishing’s own Gretta Thunberg 30 min Thanksgiving Lure Love Segment 10 min Thank yous Wally Pleasant, Diana’s Bath Salts, Track Tribe for “Greaser” intro to Keeping it Clean with Joe Henry, Nana Kwabena for “She No Dull Beat” intro to our conversation with Deighan Cherry, Joe Henry, Deighan and Jud Cherry, Tim “Tackle Box” Bete for submitting our FITN stories, Lucy the Lure Love Supercomputer for sharing that Lure Love segment with us, our families for putting up with us in all our fish nerdy ways but especially you the listener for bringing your ears right on in here and letting us fill them up with fish stuff… Credits: The Fish Nerds Podcast is the creation of Dave Kellum and Clay Groves, Clay Groves is our Chief Executive Fish Nerd and Host, John “Crappie Hippie” King is our Producer and Co-host, our associate producers are Todd Corayer “The Fish Wrap Writer”, our Fish Nerd Librarian Jeff Danaldson, Tim “Tackle Box” Bete and shining brightly above all this unwashed rabble is our radiant star the one and only Doc Martin.

    Halloween Fish - Fall Reports & New Data on Circle Hooks EP 345
    2024/10/28
    The challenges of Fall fishing Tonight’s show run down Fishing Reports 15m Hatcher Bros Erin (@femboyfishing) and Michael (@srien_string_and_stream) are catching smallies and trout and the occasional walleye in the Ozarks Steve NcAngler says trout season is over in The White Mountains but one can still dredge up some nice browns in the catch and release section of the Androscoggin. He’s catching bass these days on Sneaky Pete’s (topwater bullet head popper with a flared skirt and trailing sili strands) and for subsurface he likes Dragon Tails (a tail material called sili worm behind a built up head, originally cut down “Squirmy” toys) The Driftless-some streams closed for the Fall spawn but plenty of creeks are open to catch and release and the tourists have gone home. Fishing is solitary and they’re smashing the terrestrials, some drys and streamers. https://news.orvis.com/fly-fishing/seasons-of-the-driftless-area Joe Henry Fishing at Lake of the Woods is on fire!!! 6m FITN 10min John Gierach passed from a heart attack October 3rd 2024 Apache Trout Success: https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/secretary-haaland-announces-removal-apache-trout-arizonas-state-fish-endangered Maine Bans Painted Heads: https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/life/animals/wildlife/new-law-expands-maines-lead-fishing-tackle-ban-protect-loons/97-61c87bb3-687c-4610-839a-2ce5eb8fb7fa Laura Williams Maine Audubon Society 30 min Show pt. 2 Halloween Scary Fish: 15-20 min Zombie Salmon-Yes they are catchable, some fight some do not, the scariest thing i have ever felt sorry for short of Frankenstien. I find the grip and grin photos with them disquieting. Peter Herman Adventures- https://youtu.be/C5AjppfOntc?si=5NzzCCLnY6v4j5vm Candiru-sent in by our own Jeff Danaldson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candiru_(fish) This is the one that legend says swims up one’s urine stream right into the urethra. It has never been confirmed. In 1997 one was removed from a man’s urethra but the circumstances were “suspect” which is a story just made for Fish Nerds. Stonefish-this one scared the heck out of me when I was a little kid. The most venomous fish of all. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synanceia https://www.surfertoday.com/environment/how-to-treat-a-stonefish-sting other entries: The Kraken Angler Fish Goblin Shark My FAVORITE from Steve NcAngler is “the fish you hooked but never saw.” It could have been anything! Listener spooky stories and other fisher freak outs: 15-20min 62% of respondents have had a weird or spooky incident on the water. 25% said it started scary but turned out to be something ordinary CH and the turtle Chris Snodgrass My Wife and I were trolling for Kokanee Salmon. It was just before dark and we had the only boat on the water. It's a small reservoir in Montana. The water was like glass it was so calm. As we got out to the middle the water swirled next to the boat like a whale turned next to us. The swirl was as big or bigger than our boat. It was extremely creepy so we headed to the dock! Still not sure what the swirl was caused by but maybe an under water spring... It was in 50' of water though. Alan Dumitrescu I'm the only person at this lake. You know the sound of a rod wishing through the air on a hard cast? Yeah that sounds happened in the wooded area behind me just once like a cast. Only similar sounds I've ever heard is bigger birds wings. I looked no birds anywhere no turkeys roosting in trees for the night. The sun was setting at this point. I didn't see anything but it was real close. My only other thought cause a bunch of neighboring property dogs were all fired up a few minutes earlier and they had settled down just before I heard it. Never heard bobcat hiss in person but at that point since they are in that area is all I could think and why the dogs were fired up. So I hurried the hell out of there. I'm not tangling with big kitty if that's what it was. John J Murphy Well I grew up in Salem Ma and used to fish a cemetery pond so I’d go with yes Phantom Casters From Rick Webster I was fishing the first beach at Sandy Hook in Jersey one late September. When I got to the parking lot and not another car in sight. I set up, soaking clams on two rods before sun-up. As the pre-dawn light began to show over the horizon, a THICK bank of fog rolled in. Slack tide and zero wind…very peaceful but not expecting anything spectacular. Suddenly, about 500 seagulls that had been resting on the roof of the bath house lifted into the air and began to dive nosily into the surf. The fog was so thick I couldn’t see them, but I could hear them, not 20 yards off the beach. Figuring a blitz of snappers, I sent a 3-ounce Yo-Zuri popper into the fog and immediately came tight on what turned out to be a 12lb Albie. As I was fighting this fish, the fog began to lift and I could see I was ...

    FEMBOY FISHING - 2 OLD FARTS TALKING FISHING AND FISH TACOS EP 343
    2024/08/22
    Quick throw back to Fishing Austin and Central Texas-Aaron’s spots are his favorite wades. A boat can change the game (as he mentions). John Geirach in his 1994 book Dances with Trout describes a good paddle in his little canoe where he has a fine time catching bass and such back in the days before the surge. Both the rivers he diddles around on are in Aaron’s book (Nueces and Guadalupe) The Show-We are going to monthly. We cannot worry about what other podcasts do or what the pundits and experts say is necessary to have a good podcast. That’s fine for people who want to follow formulas that make money and content is dictated by what sells. We could do an a-hole POV podcast like that guy joe rogaine or yet another crime podcast but we are hardcore indie. And we are about fish fishing and eating fish. We do not follow any rules and never have. We do not have a narrow niche, we do not have a regular format (we do have a loose framework currently) and try as we might we do not have consistent release dates scheduled precisely. We are punk rock and while our production limitations are not the result of chemicals and ego they are the result of raising families, founding businesses, doing research and dividing our creativity and energy as best we can over any number of projects, in other words doing our thing. And Fish Nerds is one of our things. And so it survives and we keep casting pod and rod! Clay and his ever evolving merry band of helpers have broadcast this pod since 2011! So please enjoy the show, we have made all the segments a bit longer than usual just to tide y’all over. We may get some bonus material done, we made not. One thing that never has changed is we got the best dang listeners in the podcasting universe and we sure appreciate you stopping by to get your ears filled up with fish stuff. Now let’s get after it!

Fish in the Pants Two Stories: https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/shoplifters-nabbed-publix-red-snapper-hidden-pants Jeff you know what that sound means! and yes it is a Florida man story JackAss-https://globalnews.ca/news/3983184/caught-on-camera-florida-man-stuffs-stolen-fish-down-his-pants/ If you name your daughter Crystal she probably gonna be a wild thing. It’s a pretty name but dang if i have known a bunch of women named Crystal all of which could be talked into a bad idea pretty easy. At least Ms. Dixon had the sense to dump “Cruz” and ge the hell out of Dodge Jeff: Way back in my misspent youth as an aquarist I used to keep and breed Ram cichlids (Mikrogeophagus ramirezi). They are very easy to breed in captivity, maybe Cruz was just gathering stock for a side hustle as a cichlid breeder!
