On this episode, Brett chats with Kadie Heinle about her past and present fisheries research and internships which have taken her all over the Wild West. Her work has been focused in Montana, where she is currently a MS student at Montana State University researching the effects of non-native Brown Trout and drought conditions on Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout in the Crazy Mountains. Tune in to hear more, and remember: branch out and say yes to opportunities and pester your mentor with questions!

Sue interviews Dr. Malorie Hayes on her extensive work exploring patterns of fish diversity with specific focus on Southeastern US Darters and South American Catfish. The discussion also includes results of Malorie's collaborative investigation of lung parasites in Burmese pythons an impactful invasive species in the Southeastern US. This interview contains some slightly mature content in the first few minutes.

And for the grammar police. Orientating is a word (although a slightly British one, another perk of study abroad!).

Enjoy!

This week the hosts all get together and take a break from talking about research but keep the topic on fish by talking about how they enjoy fishing. We cover fly fishing for trout and small sunfish to Midwest reservoir fishing for crappie and catfish but most of the time was spent when Deon fills us all in on the latest rage: carp fishing. I hope that you enjoy this episode and remember, GO FISHING!

In this episode all four hosts got together to chat about a myriad of topics. We begin be discussing the American Fisheries Society's Virtual Annual Meeting. All of the hosts except for Nick have begun new jobs in 2020 so we catch up with what everyone's new titles and job duties are. In this discussion we learn that Brett has some pretty spotty internet in his new home so he unfortunately had to bow out. Nick, Julie, and Sue then go over their favorite books about fish that aren't text books. We've compiled a list of titles discussed here, starting with everyone's favorites:
Nick: Beautifully Grotesque Fish of the American West, by Mark Spitzer
Sue: The Ecology of Running Waters, by H.B.N. Haynes
Julie: The Hungry Ocean, by Linda Greenlaw
Brett: For the Love of Rivers, by Kurt Fausch
Others discussed:
In Search of Monster Fish, by Mark Spitzer
Season of the Gar, by Mark Spitzer
Any "Fishes of" book
Main Point: Read a book!
