In accordance with the Southeastern Wildlife Conservation Group’s (SWCG-www.swcgroup.org) efforts in supporting the research & conservation efforts of the Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (BTT-www.tarbone.org) on Tarpon and the fishery they support, we are requesting reports of juvenile tarpon populations from all States. These reports will be noted and used in habitat analysis and research that can lead to habitat restorations and habitat protections. Without public reports of juvenile tarpon populations, some of these nurseries can be overlooked and could succumb to developments, pollution and disasters. Please help us today and be a part of this valuable effort and report these populations today.
Should you or someone you know have the knowledge of locations of juvenile tarpon, please email SWCG President Mark Langner at
[email protected] with the following information:
- City and State
- GPS coordinates or specific description of location
- How population was identified (i.e. cast net, rod and reel, word of mouth, etc. if known)
- Size of fish in the population (length or weight if known)
Your input is greatly needed in helping the research & conservation of tarpon and the fishery they support. Please forward any reports of juvenile tarpon populations and become a part of this effort. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you.
Sincerely, Mark Langner
