Captain Neill Holland is a charter guide based in Tampa Bay and the founder of Ocean Aid 360, a guide-led nonprofit organization focused on removing abandoned fishing gear and marine debris from Florida's waterways. In this episode, Captain Neill reveals how ghost fishing from derelict traps continues to devastate fish populations long after they're abandoned, the surprising partnerships forming between recreational guides and commercial fishermen to solve the problem, and how recovered traps are being converted into living shoreline habitat restoration projects. The conversation covers cleanup operations from Indian River Lagoon to Key Haven, expansion plans into the Bahamas, and why community engagement is the key to scaling marine conservation efforts across tropical fisheries.
