Andrews It’s an honor for me to serve as the Chair of such a fine organization as The Billfish Foundation (TBF). I think you’ll find the depth and breadth of TBF’s work, captured in this magazine, SECRETARY demonstrates what this organization does best – “Conservation by Design”. Take a look at Fernando Aguilar the cover. It’s a beautiful piece of art. Study it and you’ll see an intricate, interlocking design depicted in bold, complementary colors. As you peel back the cover of this magazine, you’ll see the parallels between the artist’s design John P. Abplanalp and TBF’s work – bold and impassioned with many moving parts that form an intricate Jose “Pepe” Anton, Jr. pattern of success. Success I might add, that’s working in your best interest. Luis L. Bacardi Take as an example, TBF’s work in Mexico to preserve the sportfishing paradise of Los Cabos. Francisco Rangel Castelazo TBF has been working in the region for many years. We’ve done the hard work of forging Gary J. Chouest strong effective partnerships and we’ve developed key contacts at the national level, who are Robert DeGabrielle now ordering the defiant fisheries director to act in the best interest of the fish. At the same time, TBF invested in a forward-thinking approach – an exhaustive socio-economic study Chris Fischer that documents the incredible $1 BILLION value of sportfishing to Mexico. Decision makers Edwin Hawn now know definitively what’s at stake. And their constituents will work even harder to prevent Brandon Hunt them from risking their economy, their livelihoods and their sportfishing heritage to appease Norm Isaacs commercial fisheries. (See feature story beginning on page 10.) Elaine “Lainey” Jones This is just one example. Flip through the magazine and you’ll find many more of TBF doing James F. Kitchell, Ph.D. the hard work, the necessary work for those of us who care about billfish and the future of Jay Meyer, M.D. sportfishing. TBF is battling strategically on the U.S. West Coast to prevent the opening of Mobile Big Game Fishing Club a new longline fishery. In the Atlantic, TBF is calling for a catch quota for eastern Atlantic bluefin tuna that conforms to levels recommended by scientists. Mark O’Brien Paxson Offield In short, TBF is fighting for the fish and for YOU! Orange Beach Billfish Classic Frank "Skip" Smith So if you want to ensure a vibrant sportfishing tradition that is more than a memory captured on canvas (or the cover of a magazine), here’s what I need you to do today. Turn to the center Scott Steele of this issue, remove the envelope, insert the most generous donation you possibly can afford Diana Udel and mail it to TBF right away or give online at www.Billfish.org. Ralph “Agie” Vicente Paul Walker TBF’s continued ability to win victories for billfish and for you, depend on each of us doing our part. I am absolutely convinced that TBF is the best investment you can make in this regard. So when you return your envelope, please consider giving at a level commensurate with FOUNDING CHAIRMAN the mighty “granders” that we’re all dreamin’ of and fighting for! Winthrop P. Rockefeller 1948-2006 Joan Vernon PRESIDENT TBF Chair CORRECTION Ellen M. Peel, J.D. LL.M. In the last issue of Billfish there was an error in the Mexico Socio-Economic Study article. The correct amount spent by angling tourists in the region, according to the study, is $633 million (USD). See the article on page 12 of this issue for further details. We regret this error. 4 Welcome Aboard,Elliott Stark! he Billfish settling some unfinished and the evaluation of success and efficacy of Foundation is business with local their management.

James was an integral part of the Highly Migratory Species (HMS) program. In addition to day-to-day work, James planned and organized the research cruises for HMS at the SWFSC and was involved in tagging thresher, blue, and mako sharks in the Southern California Bight for many years. We are sad to see him go but are excited for his future opportunities and thankful for his many contributions to the program over the last 10 years.
