This week, Preston catches up with Lawrence Dorsey, the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission's fisheries supervisor for the piedmont region. They discuss Lawrence's journey to his current role, the impacts that introduced Alabama Bass have had on North Carolina's black bass fisheries, and how Lawrence has adapted to his current supervisory role. We hope that you enjoy this episode!

Main point: "Build networks within the field and communicate your work with your constituents."
