Fwc Fish And Wildlife Research Institute issued the following announcement on Aug. 19.
Please join FWC biologists at our upcoming Scallop Rodeo in St. Andrews Bay on August 27th! Rodeo participants may collect up to 200 bay scallops for FWC biologists to use in scallop restoration cages. The goal of the restoration cages is to protect the scallops from predators and provide a successful spawning event due to their proximity with other scallops. All Scallop Rodeo participants will receive a custom dry bag at check-in.
Sign up for the St. Andrews Bay Rodeo on Saturday, August 27th at: SAScallopRodeo.Eventbrite.com.
