What in the heck is going to hatch from these tiny eggs? Hint: it's not fish this time... #aquaticecology #ecotoxicology #5to9daysuntilhatch #20degreesC #theseeggsaretiny #myeyeshurt #backoffmanimascientist instagram.com/p/B7thuW2AxX_/…

Went in to do a water exchange today so I took a closer pic of the eggs. Object in the lower right corner is a few pieces of sand for scale. #ecotoxicology #aquaticecology #eyesstillhurting #backoffmanimascientist… instagram.com/p/B7waXEkAsss/…

Not a bad start to the delayed tourney season. 14th place finish and cashed a check in Cabelas/Bass Pro Masters Walleye Circuit on Lake Erie in Lorain, OH. #warriorboats #offshoretackle #aftcofreshwater… instagram.com/p/CBLPWXegsYB/…

Thank you Jennifer Boehme we had a great panel discussion today and I look forward to what the future holds in regards to increasing diversity and inclusivity within IAGLR

Here's a quick 1 minute video I filmed on Lake Erie to highlight some of my research. Try not to get seasick. #BlackInNature #BlackAFinSTEM #lakeerie #walleye #habs #scienceiscool #BlackScientistsMatter

Get out and explore, beauty is all around. I feel like I should be collecting fish, aquatic macro inverts, water samples and water quality data. Where's my YSI? Copeland Falls, Rocky Mountain, National Park RockyNPS #blackinnature #blackinstem #waynestate

Good times filming a segment for National Wildlife Federation on modeling Asian Carp invasion and their potential effects on Great Lakes foodwebs with @michiganoutside. Thank you for the opportunity! #blackinstem #asiancarp #greatlakesfoodwebs #ecopath #ecosim #blackscientistsmatter #blackintheoutdoors

Western Basin Lake Erie right now. The bloom is firing up. Green as far as the eye can see. #habs #microcystis #algalblooms #BlackInSTEM #blackintheoutdoors #messingwithmyfishing

A little Sci Com I was fortunate to be able to do recently. I love it! @CLASResearch Wayne State University #teachinfishin #scicomm #blackinstem #greatlakesscience

Thankful to have played a small part in this project by discussing possible impacts of Asian Carp introduction into the Great Lakes. Donna Kashian, oops, I forgot to tell you about this one also 🤷🏾. @CLASResearch Wayne State University #scicomm #greatlakes #aquaticecology #blackinstem

Guess who's a co-author on a newly published paper on Potential Effects of Bigheaded Carps on Four Laurentian Great Lakes Food Webs. I worked on the Lake Michigan Ecopath/Ecosim model. Donna Kashian onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author/Q…

It's mayfly time, and I'm reaching out to science Twitter for help. If you have a hatch near you, I'm asking if you can collect maybe 30 or so for me. Just record date, and lat/long. Keeping them dry is fine. I can get FedEx info to you for shipping if necessary. Donna Kashian

Had an awesome turnout for the NPAA Future Anglers Foundation kids clinic in Mobridge, South Dakota during my walleye tourney this past weekend. Took the opportunity to talk to them about AIS and emerging pollutants of concern such as microplastics. #outreach #scicomm

Had a great time on Lake Oahe taking my second win on the Cabelas/Bass Pro Shops Masters Walleye Circuit.

Hey! I made the cover of the Bass Pro Shops Ice Fishing Kickoff. This was great time, and there's a bunch of cool video out there floating around also. It was cold! Like -20 every morning cold! #bassproshops #icefishing #fish #blackintheoutdoors

Just finished up a brutal couple of days of shooting a Next Bite episode on the Detroit River. Post-frontal, high winds, sluggish fish, and COLD! Had a great time with Tommy Kemos and Robert Cardenas Fishing. #detroitriver #jigfish #thenextbite #icantfeelmyface #myfingersarenumb

Wow! These are showing up everywhere. Very humbling but very cool. #icefishing #crappie #bassproshops #fishingmodel

This was found in Cabelas recently. We're getting alot of milage out of that Bass Pro shoot. Costa Sunglasses @crystalxrock @thalmanns_guide_service instagram.com/p/ClgyxfRrAJK/…

Thinking back to slightly warmer temps, and hot bites. Ready to get after it in my aftco @aftcofreshwater Hydronaught bibs. #offshoretackle #mercurymarine #lowranceelectronics instagram.com/p/Cn-WfTMOTyN/…
