Prof. Warren Potts (@wpotts18) gave a breakdown of the unique challenges of recreational fisheries management in the WIO at #WIOMSA2022. We must leverage their socio-economic benefits to promote their governance and reduce impact. #recfish #recfishresearch @SAFER_Lab

It was really great to have a session dedicated to recreational fisheries at #WIOMSA2022. As the body of work and researchers grows in Africa hopefully this will become the norm at this and other African marine science symposia. #recfishresearch.
Great session on recreational fisheries at #WIOMSA2022. So much more research needed in this field. Well done @MattWFarthing @alexwinkrsa @NWambiji @billfishExpert @SAFER_Lab @wpotts18 @wiomsa #RecFish

A big thanks to everyone who participated in our special session where we discussed marine recreational fisheries in the Western Indian Ocean. Lots of interesting thoughts were shared, and I am looking forward to collaborating! #WIOMSA2022 @alexwinkrsa @billfishExpert @NWambiji.
Happening now at #WIOMSA2022 is our Special Session on Marine Recreational Fisheries (MRF) in the WIO. Good start on context setting; What do we know about MRF? What are the implications of COVID19 on MRF in Africa? What are the potential impacts of fishing tourism?
