Captain Chris Whitman, co-founder of Captains for Clean Water, returns to the show today. We dive deep into the ongoing efforts for Everglades restoration and the significant role anglers play in this movement. 

We discuss the origins of Captains for Clean Water, the intricate political landscape impacting restoration efforts, and the challenges posed by major players like the sugar industry.

 Chris shares valuable insights into how misinformation campaigns aim to keep stakeholders divided and off the battleground. The takeaway? Anglers need to unite for a common cause—clean water, a healthy environment, and the right to fish.
