VSC Meeting & Guest Speaker Event

At 7:00PM there will be an interesting presentation by a local fish biologist who lives in Hampden on the Penobscot River and gets to interact with UMaine graduate students. He will present work conducted by University of Maine graduate students to understand fish migration in our changing Penobscot River. He will try to focus on some of the methods in the toolbox of fish biologists including telemetry, electrofishing, DIDSON, even good old fashioned models and the importance of “sound science”. Lot’s of good pictures, and some science too!
Free Fly Tying Tuesday January 15th!
