Biography
Philip has leveraged his already substantial experience in the recreational fisheries sector to advance connections between science and policy during his time in REM. This includes evaluating mortality rate of different genetic strains of fish after they are caught and released by fishers and contributing to development of a control strategy for invasive smallmouth bass in Cultus Lake, which pose a risk to threatened Cultus Lake Sockeye Salmon and endangered Pygmy Sculpin. All this on top of his thesis, which has provided evidence that the current recreational fishing monitoring program in the Georgia Strait is underestimating fishing effort, and therefore recreational fishing catch due to changes in the fishery over recent decades.
