Nick Haddad/Return 'Em Right - How To Use A Descending Device and get one FREE - Episode #744

Nick Haddad is the Sustainable Fisheries Communications Manager for Return ‘Em Right which is a new program that is the leading voice for tackling catch and release mortality due to barotrauma in the Gulf of Mexico. Their mission is to improve reef fish survival by equipping anglers with the knowledge and gear to release reef fish confidently and successfully. Offshore anglers can visit returnemright.org (https://returnemright.org/) to learn about barotrauma and participate in a short 15-minute training on best release practices, including venting and descending. Eligible anglers can also earn free release gear to use out on the water.

We talk about the different devices, proper use and the laws and rules around proper release of reef fish.

Permit Fishing 101 - Seasons And Guides Featuring Captain Nick Labadie

The Lower Florida Keys are one of the very best places in the world to catch Permit on the flats. In order for Permit to be plentiful, they need the right temperature, food source, vast inshore and offshore habitat and structure such as wrecks, coral heads, and bridges. I sat down with Capt. Nick Labadie of Tailing Water Expeditions (find him on Instagram @captnicklabadie) and discussed boats, guides, seasons, time of year, tides, and questions to ask that go into a planning a trip for one of the most difficult fish in the ocean, the permit.

Definitely listen to this podcast with Nick if you are interested in permit fishing. Below you will find some of my own information on seasons and guides. The podcast has much more information than this article.
