💧Why is the best nutrient pollution fix being ignored?

Check out our new blog, where we explore the biggest double-standard in the fight against nutrient pollution.

Killing plants is driving pollution faster than anything 💯

Even more: changing management would not only stop the input, it would REDUCE nutrients and work toward Florida's goal.

Real-world science 🧪

We base our advocacy on our own research and data.

Just like you, we’ve witnessed the declines all across the St. Johns River for decades. We’re not satisfied with the current course, so we often take matters into our own hands.

We’re working on a new future for the river. YOUR river. Become a member of Mighty River Recovery to ensure your voice is heard.

We get in there ❗️

Our focus is real-world science. When the narrative contradicts reality and data doesn’t exist, we’ll do whatever it takes to find the truth.

To find solutions to our problems, we need action, not just talk. We’ve had enough of theories and endless studies.

The St. Johns River has been in a constant state of decline for decades. Our organization was formed to end that decline and restore the bass fishing capital of the world.

Often times that means we have to get wet and dirty. We’re ok with that 🙂.

Introducing our new team member 😎

You're sure to notice our super-cool trailer at events near you. A HUGE thanks to Better Fence Company and Mud Hole Custom Tackle for making this possible.

👏 It's important to point out: We couldn't do our work without the support of companies like these. They're focused on our community and what matters most to YOU: a healthy, viable St. Johns River.


10/08/2026

For this event, we'll take fish-care to a whole new level❗️
Chemically-treated, oxygen-injected tanks will be used to transport bass throughout the system for release, healthier than when they came aboard. We're here to protect and improve every aspect of your resource. We hope you can join us for a tournament like no other.
