Springfield, MO -(Ammoland.com)- Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World Radio’s April 4 show features Larry Voyles, director of the Arizona Game and Fish Department and president of the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA), and Jeff Angers, president of the Center for Coastal Conservation.

The hour-long radio show airs Saturdays at 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Eastern time on RURAL RADIO’s SiriusXM channel 80. Voyles discusses his conservation objectives in Arizona and at the national level including updates on the progress of AFWA’s Blue Ribbon Panel, which is co-chaired by Bass Pro Shops Founder Johnny Morris and former Wyoming Governor Dave Freudenthal.

The panel is tasked with developing a 21st Century model for sustaining America’s diverse fish and wildlife resources. The Center for Coastal Conservation’s Angers talks about the success of redfish conservation efforts. He also discussed why the gulf red snapper is the “poster fish” for federal mismanagement of America’s marine resources and how state management of that species can turn things around.
