Dr. Steven Cooke, from Carleton University, Ottawa Canada, will kick off the series on Thursday, February 18, with his presentation on “The Science of Catching and Releasing Angler-Caught Bass.”  Dr. Cooke is an avid bass fisherman and professor of applied fish ecology at Carleton University.  He has completed numerous studies on the effects of catching and releasing bass and will present his findings on how to minimize fish stress when handling the bass you catch.
