Local Office with Local Solutions
Every region, state, and watershed has their own conditions, problems, and solutions that need to be measured and resolved. In the transition zone of the central great plains, there are nutrient-rich waters prone to large algae blooms, cold and deep gravel pits and sand pits that lack habitat, and a constant need for balancing predator-prey dynamics in variable climates. The southern office has extensive experience deploying diverse habitat, implementing alkalinity and pH management, using pond dye and beneficial bacteria for algae control, electrofishing surveys to monitor population health and densities, and managing age classes for optimal fishery quality and health. Whether you’re turning a deep-water quarry into a trophy bass fishery or managing habitat in shallow grassland reservoirs, Jared and the central office deliver tailored, science-driven solutions for legendary results.
