Join Capri on a journey through the heart of America, where the rich flavors of its diverse regions come alive through the stories of farmers, artisans, and home cooks. From the shores of Lake Erie to the vibrant culture of Ohio, America The Bountiful takes viewers on a weekly exploration of the personal, emotionally moving chronicles of those who grow, produce, and share their food with the world.
Freshwater Fishing in Ohio’s Lake Erie
Capri heads to Ohio’s Lake Erie to catch a walleye and learn about the future of sustainable freshwater fish farming with an aquaponics demonstration at Bowling Green State University.
As we set out on the lake, Capri points out the importance of walleye in the local ecosystem. These fish are a vital food source for many species, and their decline can have a ripple effect on the entire food chain.
Capri is joined by a local fisherman, who shares his expertise on the best spots to catch walleye and the challenges of sustainable fishing practices.
Cooking with Walleye
After a successful catch, Capri takes the walleye to the shores of an island, where she meets with Jeremy Umanski, a chef, author, and freshwater fish ambassador.
