Tournament update for the remainder of the summer! These tournaments have all exhibited a dedication to billfish conservation by partnering with us through donation or research. If you're looking for a tournament to get involved in, check them out! billfish.org/featured/summe…

@Alex61989537 @WhySharksMatter Let us know if you have any questions for us!

If you're out social distancing on the water, why not take this opportunity to start tagging? Tag and release is one of the best ways to support billfish conservation, and you can get everything you need to get started on our online shop! shop.billfish.org/collections…
