Catch of the Day

john-nerrenLocal diver, John Nerren emerged this morning from beneath the water in full wet suit hoisting his “catch of the day” onto the docks. Participants saw the different species of mussels found in the Tennessee River, and enjoyed a brief biology lesson on how the mussel fits into the aquaculture system of the area waters.

Tennessee’s Official State Gem – the freshwater pearl – is rarely found naturally from these living animals, but grown at the only freshwater pearl-culturing farm operation in the North American continent.
