Hello. I'm Major Roy Brown with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission
with a safe boating message.
With the holiday quickly approaching
I want to remind boaters about the jumping sturgeon on the Suwannee River.
Boaters in the past have been seriously injured when colliding with these fish.
The sturgeon aren't attacking or targeting boaters,
they're simply doing what they've been doing for thousands of years.
We want you to enjoy the scenic Suwannee River and have fun this holiday weekend
but we also urge you to go slow and wear your lifejacket while underway.
Be safe and have a happy Memorial Day weekend.
