00:00Today, Brooke, I want to show you something that I've been passionate about my whole life
00:06and something that's a really important conservation tool for the area.
00:10What do you think all of this stuff is for?
00:11It's for fishing!
00:12It is indeed.
00:13I love fishing.
00:17So how do you conserve the fish with fishing?
00:20Well, first of all, we have to find the fish.
00:23Then we have to catch them, which is what all this tackle is for.
00:26Once we have the fish on board, we put them in a water-filled container that we call the
00:29GT Jacuzzi.
00:32And he's in there, he's able to breathe, not stressed out.
00:35And then we put the tag in, we take a measurement, and then we put the fish back.
00:39So why do we tag all these fish?
00:41Well, very good question, Brooke.
00:43So there's a couple of reasons.
00:44We're basically building up a scientific database, and the Ocean Research Institute in Durban
00:50runs this whole project.
00:51And they've been doing so for almost 30 years now.
00:53There's hundreds of fishermen in Southern Africa who participate in this citizen science
00:58program.
00:59And they've tagged over 350,000 fish.
01:01Wow, that's incredible.
01:02And had as many as 35,000 recaptures.
01:05So there's a huge amount of data that scientists are then able to use to help them understand
01:10fish species better.
01:11So how many of these fish have you and your team caught?
01:14Well, so far, Brooke, we've tagged 497 fish.
01:18Wow, that's a lot of fish.
01:20It is indeed.
01:21So with your help today, hopefully we'll get to 500.
01:23Oh, I can't wait.
01:24I'll definitely help you with that.
01:25Should we go and give it a go?
01:26Okay, let's do it.
01:27Let's get going.
01:28Okay, let's go for a fish, Brooke.
01:29Thank you.
01:30We're on.
