#15 || Steve Quinn: The Lateral Line, A Fish's Sixth Sense

August 27, 2024 Gord Pyzer & Liam Whetter

Biologist Steve Quinn has a foot in the world of fisheries science and fishing itself. The longtime bass editor of In-Fisherman Magazine has authored numerous research reports and served in various capacities for the American Fisheries Society. Steve joins Liam and Gord on this week's podcast to reveal how fish use their lateral lines to communicate with each other, hunt and capture prey. They can even detect the vortex left in the water by a fleeing baitfish (or your lure) and follow it straight to the item. You will be intrigued listening to this week's podcast —and add a trick or two to your game plan - thanks to Bass Fishing Hall of Fame inductee, Steve Quinn.
