Tailer Trash Fly Fishing - Conservation Conversation - Jessy Wayles - One Lagoon

Tailer Trash Fly Fishing

A Tailer Trash Fly Fishing Conservation Conversation With Jessy Wayles From One Lagoon Join the cast of Tailer Trash Fly Fishing for a very informative conversation with Jessy Wayles about a myriad of topics related to conservation and restoration work that is being completed in the Indian River Lagoon. Jessy works for One Lagoon, our branch of the National Estuary Program. The organization is a sub-agency funded by The Environmental Protection Agency. Their mission is to coordinate activities related to restoration and conservation efforts in and around the entire Indian River Lagoon. Their jurisdiction spans multiple counties and includes our inland estuary from the Tomoka Basin to the north to Stuart at the south end of the IRL. We learned a lot about the guidelines that are in place for research and the means and methods of how restoration sites are selected and the required monitoring that is part of the grant process. Additionally we discussed tagging programs for horseshoe crabs, sea grass nurseries that recently received funding as well as clam projects that are expanding. We hope you'll listen to the podcast in hopes that you'll better understand activities that you may see that are ongoing in our local waters as well as learn how to be involved in a productive and constructive manner beyond social media.
