If you're a serious saltwater angler, you've certainly heard of the Indian River Lagoon. The IRL is world-renowned for its amazing fishing and endless seagrass (or at least it used to be). It also used to be a place that anglers from all over the world would travel to catch a trophy speckled trout, redfish, or snook.
But the last 20 years have been incredibly harsh on the Indian River Lagoon - from overdevelopment to runoff from homes to sewage spills to agriculture, the Lagoon is littered with pollution.
One group called ORCA (Ocean Research & Conservation Association) is doing some really amazing things with technology to discover the main causes of the pollution (along with coming up with solutions).
Listen is as we discuss their unique way of using pollution mapping and other science-based technology to save the Lagoon.
