Save Sailfish and other Sportfishing Species from Bycatch in Mexico - Fight Against Nom-029
The Billfish Foundation is asking for your help in pressing our fight against recent action by Mexico’s fisheries agency to allow for a bycatch of sailfish, dorado, marlin and other sport fishing species in the shark longline fishery (Nom-029). Senator Luis Coppola of Los Cabos is championing our cause in the Mexican Senate. He wants to hear from billfish conservationists around the world showing their support to repeal the bycatch allowances.
Please visit one of the Sea Watch hosted websites below and choose an email letter to send Senator Coppola. The letters are very simple to modify and can be personalized as you please. This will only take a minute of your time, but will make a world of difference to the fish and sportfishing! Thank you for taking a moment to participate in this important task.
