Have you seen a squid this year? Be a citizen scientist! Download the Squid Recreational Survey on the Survey123 app. We’ll use the information like time, weather conditions, location, and gear to learn more about squid.

Best ROV pic ever. (if you disagree I dare you to show me a better one.) (if you agree, you can still show me more ROV pics, I won't be mad about it.)

3/5 The more details the better! The most important include WHERE you caught the tagged fish, HOW you caught it and the LENGTH of the fish. This information helps us to track growth, movement and survival to better understand the stock.

Observers on the Twin Otter sighted a group of 30 (!!) killer whales SE of Newfoundland yesterday (small red "fish" symbol)(+ 3 killer whales earlier). This is one of the largest groups reported in Newfoundland & Labrador waters. Mariners let me know if you sight these whales?

Keep your eyes peeled! Someone spotted a North Atlantic right whale skim feeding at the surface just off Long Pond, Conception Bay on 1 Nov. Lots of copepods in the area. New England Aquarium IDed her as #1408 , "Freckles", born in 2013 and never before recorded in Canada.
