The 2015 Black Tail Invitational Permit Tournament, held in Punta Allen, Mexico in August, was a huge success, with 43 permit tagged and released for Bonefish and Tarpon Trust, and $5,000 raised for the Jon Ain Memorial Fund, which supports BTT’s permit research. The tournament consisted of 12 boats with 12 single anglers and one guide. Guides from all lodges in the surrounding area were invited to participate. The 12 anglers landed 43 total permit in the five days of fishing, with 37 permit being caught in the tournament. Mike Dawes and Jose Ucan won the tournament with nine permit landed, and Mike also caught the largest permit in the tournament. Thanks to all the sponsors and anglers for participating in BTT’s permit research and for your generous support of BTT.
