Primary findings: Air exposure time should be reduced to below 75 s, and ideally to 10 s to minimise the physiological stress response, reflex impairment and short-term survival of A. japonicus following C&R angling. Congratulations to these authors! authors.elsevier.com/c/1f64rbiU1vYC4

This is an ocean dwelling ribbon worm from the genus Gorgonorhynchus What you can see being discharged is a sticky proboscis, this densely branching structure is a feeding appendage used in hunting.

Congratulations to the authors of another very interesting paper entitled "Are recreational fishing guides role models for their clients?" "...to develop fishing guides into effective “agents of change” in the global social movement of recreational angler self-reform."

A big thank you to all the co-authors of our latest paper on recreational fishing guides in FR: SAFER LAB Warren Potts Amber-Robyn Childs Judy Mann-Lang Chris Bova Jake Brownscombe Shannon@Planitnorth Keno Ferter Dr. Alex Winkler Ed Butler FishForward Adrian Pinder authors.elsevier.com/a/1fbXubiU1vYP…

Client satisfaction vs Ecological integrity Knowledge vs Implementation of best practices Some fascinating insights into the importance and overall potential of these recreational fishing role-models. Well done to Matthew William Farthing and co-authors. doi.org/10.1016/j.fish…

Today's Caribbean fish is the French Grunt (Haemulon flavolineatum). The two here are competing for ranking in their group. This photo is great to see why the genus got the name "Haemulon", it comes from the Greek haimaleos = bloody in reference to the color inside their mouth.

Don’t forget to get those applications in! An amazing #jobopportunity not to miss out on! Any queries at all please get in touch with Alastair Baylis

Exciting times ahead as the Caribbean's newest otolith lab is batch processing its first couple hundred samples in the Turks and Caicos Islands, in partnership with TCIG Communications Directorate & Fish Ageing Services Ltd, funded through Darwin Plus.
