Here we are 44 years later and Marilyn Black is still the one and only female #Fish #Commissioner. Currently three Commissioner positions up for appointment and I would bet that not one female was considered for nomination. Cāmon Gov @GovernorShapiro @DerekEberlyPenn @DCNRnews

Happy Presidentās Day! Very fortunate to share the stream with President Carter and First Lady Mrs. Carter. My claim to fame was to hold the cue cards for a PSA about water pollution the President graciously agreed to do with @PennsylvaniaTU He was a friend of the fish!

The mystery of the missing blue pike. I remember fishing for them in Lake Erie when I was young. Party boats would be filled with anglers looking to bring home dinner. Then they disappeared never to be seen again until now! š¤£. Thanks @MeatEater
