FWC to take up Boca Grande tarpon protection issue
Monday, August 13, 2012 at 12:00AM 
In a recent interview Kenneth Wright, Chairman of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, says they're going to be taking up the issue of jig fishing for tarpon at their September meeting in Tampa. He's also looking into holding a tarpon summit and bringing together representatives of the Boca Grande Guides Association, Bonefish & Tarpon Trust as well as Professional Tarpon Tournament Series to get as many of the parties together to get the facts on the table.
Would love to be a fly on the wall at that gathering.
