FSU Coastal Marine Lab

The coast of northwest Florida is such a biologically rich area that it is considered one of six biodiversity hotspots in the United States. The region within which the Florida State University Coastal & Marine Laboratory (FSUCML) is imbedded is relatively untouched by the development that plagues many of Florida's shores. As such, it includes a mosaic of habitats ranging from oyster reefs to seagrass meadows, from freshwater bogs to salt marshes, with ready access to nearshore sponge reefs and offshore drowned patch reefs. The mission of the FSUCML is to conduct innovative, interdisciplinary research focused on the coastal and marine ecosystems of the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, with a focus on solving the ecological problems faced by the region by providing the scientific underpinnings for informed policy decisions.

Brock Shiver Guide Company

I am a sixth-generation local of Apalachicola with a deep love for the water. Growing up in this beautiful area, I developed a passion for the outdoors at a very young age, and I always knew that the water would be a central part of my life. I earned my degree in Environmental Studies with a focus in ecology from Florida Gulf Coast University, which deepened my understanding and appreciation of the local ecosystems.

After graduating high school in 2020, I quickly earned my captain’s license and began guiding on the waters I’ve always called home. For the past several years, I’ve been fortunate to guide others through the bountiful waters of Apalachicola and the surrounding areas, sharing my love for fishing and the outdoors.

What I enjoy most about my work is learning to adapt to the changing fishing conditions, always striving to find the best spots and techniques. But my true joy comes from watching my clients experience the same excitement and sense of wonder that made me fall in love with fishing and the natural world in the first place.

Whether you're an experienced angler or a first-timer, I’m committed to making your time on the water both enjoyable and memorable. I look forward to sharing the beauty and thrill of Apalachicola’s waters with you!

The “Bend” is where Florida’s Gulf Coast curves westward, sheltering vast seagrass beds, marshes, winding rivers, sugar-sand beaches, deep forests, and crystal-clear springs. The unparalleled natural bounty and beauty of the Bend have attracted visitors since 15,000 BC. While traveling on the Byway, visitors can explore the natural resources which have supported and sustained the lives and the livelihoods of generations past and present. Tallahassee, Florida’s capital city, welcomes travelers to this 220-mile natural wonderland where wildlife outnumbers people. Over 300 species of birds, 2,500 plant species, and more carnivorous plants (30) than any similarly sized area in the world call the Bend home.
