Jessica Pate stops by The Guide Post to discuss the inception of the Florida Manta Project and how collaborative efforts with cobia fishermen aims to expand that understanding and increase angler success while reducing angler impacts.

You can help expand our understanding of these incredible rays! If you have documented any manta rays off the east coast in recent seasons, reach out to Jessica on Instagram (@FloridaMantaGirl) or by email (florida@marinemegafauna.org)!
