I’m hosting my 5th Annual Nanticoke River Invasive Fishing Derby this Saturday, July 18th! This event is FREE to the public thanks to our sponsors CCA MD & Salisbury U, aimed at encouraging people to catch & eat invasive fishes like blue catfish. Scan the QR code for more info or search Facebook! 🐟🎣

Climate.us is officially live! After NOAA ended Climate.gov’s day-to-day operations in 2025, former team members built Climate.us to carry that work forward. Their explanations and graphics have always stood out to me as clear, accessible, and transparent. I’m really looking forward to this reboot.

@whysharksmatter.bsky.social how do you feel about the factuality of this headline?

Funding science education projects, while paying local artists for their work, while making you all look cool as hell in marine biology shirts, is shrimply the best way to make good stuff happen. At least I think so. Speaking of which... Have you seen our latest shirt?? SquidFacts.net

I’m kind of the odd one it in invasives species in general because most of my research tackles it from unusual angles, so I guess what is standard for me probably surprises most. But I think the Pablo Escobar cocaine hippos example we cover will certainly surprise everyone!

Excited to share our new paper on Thinking Outside-the-box: a Perspective into Non-traditional Invasive Species Management Practices, which introduces the special issue of the same topic in @sicbjournals.bsky.social, led by current MS student in my lab, Liam Hanley! academic.oup.com/icb/article-...

She was ready to go home turtles 🐢

My neighbor didn’t know what was going on with this snapping turtle so I did a welfare check on this one. A few hours later, it was done and I thought it was back in the water. Nope, somehow it got into my garage and got tangled up in a fishing net. I quickly freed her and she is back in the lake

It’s that time of year again.. if you see turtles crossing roads/out in the open/digging, they are doing their normal behavior. They are searching for a spot to lay some eggs. Leave it be, unless it’s in a road, then carefully pick it up & move it to the other side in the direction it was going 🐢

Smithsonian Fish Curator position announcement! Note the application dates of May 12 – June 2, 2026. Should be posted here tomorrow: trustcareers.si.edu#js-careers-j...

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

When I tell people who are older than me that I’m a professor, I get “oh so you’re in school to be a prof?” more often than “what do you teach/research?” 🤦‍♂️ I’m finishing my 5th year now & apply for tenure in the fall. At what point/age will people start believing that I have the job I say I have??

I made a new online store on RedBubble because I wanted to get some new tank tops for summer and thought it would be cool to have some with my artwork on them! Check out my shop for a variety of products, from clothing to stickers to bucket hats to aprons and more! I’ll slowly be adding new pieces!🐡

Carp be out here spawning… thought a bunch of fish were blowing up on topwater and got excited with my frog lure… until I realized it’s carp spawning season and the carp are chasing each other around and spawning on the shoreline 🐟 🎣

Hey kid, do you wanna learn about reffling? All the cool Loricariidae are doing it! Join us for episode 76, where we chat with @noahwithfish.bsky.social! We'll learn about his incredible career and his work studying fish species which can ambulate on land! Find it on your podcast app of choice!

Polarized sunglasses are a must have for fishing or any form of aquatic/marine research because they help cut the glare, allowing you to more easily see through the water. Behold their power!
