Toledo Bend Telemetry Tracking Study Update Todd Driscoll TP&W Biologist 1-15-22 Part 1

This is the January 2022 Update on the Toledo Bend Telemetry tracking study with Todd Driscoll fisheries biologist that is heading up the team that are tracking bass in Toledo that they have placed radio transmitters in since early in 2020. Fascinating stuff, fish swimming 5+ miles over two week periods, and some that never move.
Todd is updating us on the study they are currently doing using telemetry, or basically a radio transmitter implanted in large mouth bass from 3 to 8 pounds in Toledo Bend and Lake Fork in Texas. Specifically today he talks about what fish do after they are caught and released and ,what they have discovered about how far fish travel on a daily basis, all things they have discovered roughly 20 months into the study.
They are tracking both shallow and deep bass, every other week and observing what those fish do, how they react to boat noise, where they rest, where they feed, how they react to baits, survival rates, every thing we tournament bass fisherman want to know. This is the first part of our conversation in January of 2022.
