Today, father and son Gene and Nick Santini of Punta Gorda continue a five-generation family fishing legacy by harvesting blue crabs from Charlotte Harbor. And the latest episode of Adventure & Wildlife – Hosted by the Shark Brothers highlights a morning of crabbing with the Santinis then follows the blue crabs to Peace River Seafood, where owner Kelly Beall and general manager Larry Corbin discuss more of the seafood industry. Peace River Wildlife Center in Punta Gorda is featured in the episode’s conservation spotlight segment. Dr. Robin Jenkins, who is the facility’s director of veterinary services, and Executive Director Callie Stahl share what the nonprofit facility does to rehabilitate and care for abandoned, injured or orphaned native wildlife. The 25-minute video is part of an original series hosted and produced by Sean Paxton and Brooks Paxton II, otherwise known as the Shark Brothers, and a component of the Punta Gorda/Englewood Beach Visitor & Convention Bureau marketing program. Additional episodes of Adventure and Wildlife – Hosted by the Shark Brothers will be released at later dates featuring the abundant outdoor recreation opportunities the Punta Gorda area offers.
