OUR EVENT SPEAKER

Clark Morgan was born in Orlando, Florida and his passions of research and adventure have taken him around the world to Australia, The Bahamas, Hawai'i, and Indonesia. Clark obtained his BS in Biology from Florida State University and MS in Biology from University of North Florida where he used fishery-independent surveys and stable isotope analysis to investigate coastal elasmobranch community dynamics and resource use. He is now pursuing his PhD in Integrative Biology: Marine Science and Oceanography at Florida Atlantic University's Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute in Ft. Pierce, Florida. There, his dissertation research is focused on improving the management strategies of the Atlantic goliath grouper. He is also an award-winning underwater photographer, and uses photojournalism to promote environmental literacy in support of sustainable coexistence of humans and exploited marine fishes.

Populations of goliath grouper, an enormous species that was once on the brink of extinction, are slowly recovering in Florida. Learn about the biology and conservation of this unique species and its importance to the fishing and diving industries in Florida. This webinar will also highlight ground-breaking research on improving the fishery regulations of goliath grouper and will take you underwater to see what life is like on an artificial reef from the fish's perspective!

Testimonials on the impact of Sol Margin Fishing & Conservation Foundation

As a senior, I really like and appreciate being able to click a button and go directly into the webinar without having to remember any pass codes or dial any numbers. It was such a pleasure to watch the webinar.

Jean H.Past Webinar Attendee

Sol Margin Fishing and Conservation Foundation webinars are extremely professional. They’re easy to access and you can focus on the information given instead of having to worry about software.

Rebecca L.Business Consultant

I really liked watching the webinars because they are short and give enough information to keep my attention as well as being engaging. The speaker wasn’t long and drawn out where I lost interest. My kids loved being able to ask a question live to a real scientist!

Jennifer S.Homeschooling Mom

"I had the privilege of attending a fishing seminar hosted by SMFCF. the knowledge and expertise of the instructors were evident and their passion for safe angling and conservation was contagious. We hope to join in more of their events. I highly recommend participating in any of their programs."

Michael D.Past Program Attendee

"SMFCF events are engaging and hands-on. I have learned how to play outside safely, appreciate nature, and interact with my environment, as well as take care of it."
