Calling All Juvenile Tarpon Anglers!
We need your help to identify juvenile tarpon habitats in your area. BTT has begun mapping juvenile tarpon habitat to 1) determine the habitat characteristics that are best for juvenile tarpon and 2) protect healthy habitats and identify other areas for habitat restoration. BTT has already been involved with three juvenile habitat restoration projects and we will use this data to expand the restoration and protection effort.
If you are aware of any locations that hold juvenile tarpon that are 12 inches long or less, please contact JoEllen Wilson at jwilson@bonefishtarpontrust.org. You will be asked for an exact location to better assess the habitat characteristics for that spot. Don’t worry, all information is strictly confidential and WILL NOT be disseminated to the public in any way.
We appreciate your assistance in protecting the future of the tarpon fishery. If you would like to donate to this project or any other BTT project, please click here.
