Building the next generation of fisheries management tools
Red Hills Fishery is at the cutting edge of black bass genetics, advancing fisheries management by turning genetic science into real-world tools through advanced breeding, targeted fish for angling and conservation, and innovative genetic testing.
Our Research and Process
Our goal is to unlock the genetic potential of Largemouth bass. Utilizing Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) as precise genetic markers, we meticulously select broodstock families with superior genetic profiles. By targeting specific traits, we accelerate growth and enhance the size of our fish. This approach ensures continuous genetic improvement across generations, promising to revolutionize angling and bolster bass conservation efforts.
Black Bass Focus
Red Hills Fishery is a research-driven organization focused on Largemouth and Florida bass, working with public and private partners to advance black bass science and develop tools that build higher-performing, healthier, and more sustainable fisheries.
Client-Centric Approach
Centered on the principle of "Building Better Bass," we tailor our genetic research to the unique needs of pond owners, lake managers, and conservation agencies. Our aim is to enhance sportfishing experiences and refine fisheries management, backed by our unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction.
Genetic Services
We provide advanced genetic testing to optimize bass populations for growth, health, and performance. Our analyses provide information on lineage, diversity/relatedness, and trophy potential, helping fisheries and lake managers make informed stocking and breeding decisions. This ensures superior fish quality while supporting sustainable fisheries management and conservation goals.
At Red Hills Fishery, conservation begins with knowledge. Through genetic research and data-driven insights, we help fisheries managers move beyond traditional limitations and adopt more effective, science-based approaches to protecting aquatic ecosystems.
