Dr. Sean Landsman (above) teaches at the Institute of Environmental and Interdisciplinary Science at Carleton University, and is a serious muskie angler, to boot. In this special two-part series, Blue Fish Radio producer/host Lawrence Gunther talks to Landsman about the effect Canada’s many dams have on our gamefish species, including fish health, the strengths and weaknesses of various fish passage systems and why it makes sense to remove most smaller legacy dams.
