​It’s not even July yet and a new heat wave is developing, due in just a few days.  We’ve already broken heat records for the year a dozen times, and more record-breaking heat day are coming!

Climate change changes everything when it comes to stewardship of water and fish.  Is this the tip of the iceberg?  What iceberg?  It’s melted.

​Of the nearly 10,000 BioHaven floating islands launched since Floating Island International opened its doors in 2005, a sizable number have been focused on fishery enhancement.  People like myself, who grew up with a fishing pole in their hands, pick up on the idea that nature can be helped.  Nature can be enhanced.  Building an ultimate fishing hole, or supporting a public fishery with good habitat design, has motivated many island launches.  But there’s usually only a vague understanding of just how floating islands help fish grow.  For certain, the other two popular methods to grow fish are better understood.  But are they better for water?
