In this episode, Angelo Viola and Pete Bowman welcome Dr. Steven Cook back to the show to break down the highlights of the once-in-a-generation Black Bass Symposium. Held in Texas, the symposium brought together scientists, managers, and anglers to discuss the state of bass fisheries across North America. From habitat conservation and stocking debates to the controversy around forward-facing sonar and the role of technology in tournaments, this conversation explores how bass management needs to evolve. Plus, the crew digs into listener questions, invasive species updates, and what it takes to prepare for the ultimate fly-in fishing trip.
