The Annapolis Capital (Sat 26 Apr, 2008)
Commentary - The last yellow perch in the Severn River
Staff quoted: UMCES
It is a chilly, wet Monday afternoon in late March, as Allison Buckalew and Pierre Henkart pull in the fine mesh net trailing behind the boat. They have begun the annual Severn Riverkeeper Monitoring Program. Pierre and Allison are hoping to find at least one small yellow perch fry, one small survivor, from the once-prolific spring spawn in the Severn.
Allison and Pierre are using my personal boat, since I am the Severn Riverkeeper, and the Severn Riverkeeper Program is too new and too poor to buy a boat. They are covering the same waters that my father and I used to fish when I was a small boy.
