Hear from Larry Voyles, director of the Arizona Game and Fish Department and president of the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA), as well as Jeff Angers, president of the Center for Coastal Conservation. Voyles discusses his conservation objectives in Arizona and at the national level including updates on the progress of AFWA’s Blue Ribbon Panel, which is co-chaired by Bass Pro Shops Founder Johnny Morris and former Wyoming Governor Dave Freudenthal. Angers talks about the success of redfish conservation efforts. He also discussed why the gulf red snapper is the “poster fish” for federal mismanagement of America’s marine resources and how state management of that species can turn things around.
