Episode 19 : Getting personal about Sheepshead conservation

On this weeks episode, we discuss a topic very near and dear to the @tide_chasers platform, sheepshead and conservation of this incredible fishing opportunity in our Jersey waters.  Your hosts, @thatasianangler and @dmancari18, spend some time discussing the countless reports of over-harvesting of sheepshead of all sizes due to the lack of regulations.  We understand that everyone has the ability to due as they choose, however we try to walk the line between talking about responsible harvest as opposed to gluttonous behavior we’ve encountered on the waters we love.  Just because something is legal, doesn’t mean it is morally right.  Multiple times daily, friends and parts of the @tide_chasers community have sent us messages regarding what they’re seeing out there, and there’s legitimate concern for the fishery as a whole until more is known. Tune in as we discuss our views on the fishery, next steps in taking the necessary action to get it regulated and better protected, especially with as much that is unknown regarding the fishery in the Jersey waters.  We fully understand that we may lose followers/listeners by taking a hard stance against over-harvesting of NJ Sheepshead with no regulations, and we are prepared to continue down this road for the health of the fishery we love. Tide Chasers is a weekly podcast featuring local fishermen, charter captains, tackle shop owners and party boat captains among others.  We discuss our local fisheries as well as opportunities to the north and south of our home waters of PA/NJ.  If you or someone you know would like to be a guest, send us a message!  Otherwise, we appreciate all the likes, shares, follows and subscribers as it helps us grow!  Help us get the word out, hit that share button!
