369 - Identifying Individual Fish from Angler Photos with Sam Chasse

On this weeks episode Brendan is joined by Sam Chasse, a M.Sc Candidate from the University of Winnipeg with past guest Dr. Hasler!  He's been working on a super cool project that involves Musky, machine learning, and angler photos. Tune in to learn how Sam and the team at the University of Winnipeg built a system to identify individuals in angler photos from the Master Angler Program in Manitoba.  They discuss the challenges and benefits of this technique, and what it could mean for future behaviour studies and fisheries assessments!   Manitoba Master Angler Program - https://anglers.travelmanitoba.com/   Get in touch with us!
