Podcast Synopsis
If you fish in Florida or really anywhere in the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Seaboard you have probably had your fish get eaten on the way in. It is happening everywhere and there is a SHARK EXPLOSION.
This is a highly controversial topic because most of the population have been conditioned to believe that Sharks populations are on the decline and somehow they are rare, delicate and almost on the endangered species list.
NOTHING COULD BE FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH IN FLORIDA. Shark numbers are higher than any professional guides have ever seen in their careers. They are everywhere and they are attacking anglers catches on record levels inshore, offshore and everywhere in between.
On today's episode we have Congressman Rob Whittman. The Congressman is an avid outdoorsman and fan of Saltwater Experience. He loves to fish and enjoy the beautiful fisheries our country has to offer. He has also seen the dramatic rise in shark populations and has decided to do something about it.
Congressman Rob Whittman came on the show to explain the new legislation he is co-sponsoring to try to help curb the Shark Depredation that is affecting fisherman all up and down our coasts.
