Jim Roberson, the Destin area IGFA Representative, will be conducting free seminars on the new NMFS rules surrounding billfish and how they affect tournament fishing. The seminars will cover some of the finer nuances of what anglers can and cannot do under the new rules. Jim also plans to release some preliminary data from a recent white marlin satellite pop-up tagging program that could change the way we fish for white marlin.

The seminars will be held at the Bass Pro Shop in Destin Saturday, February 24th at 12:30pm and Sunday the 25th at 4:00pm.

The Miami Boat Show takes place February 15th-19th and we'll once again be set up in the Big Game Room at the Miami Convention Center. We'll be in Booth #2242.

Shawna Meisner, ECBC Tournament Director and Julia Brakhage from Tournament Control will be manning the booth. Please stop by and say hello—we'd love to see you!
