As anglers, we know the importance that clean water and clean oceans have to our passion. Today, we celebrate our oceans and the wild bounties they provide.
A few ways you can support our oceans on World Ocean Day:
Celebrate by supporting Bonefish & Tarpon Trust’s Northern Bahamas Mangrove Restoration Project, which seeks to replant 100,000 mangroves in areas of the Bahamas hardest hit by Hurricane Dorian. Mangroves are an essential part of the ecosystem that provide habitat for bonefish and other wildlife, prevent coastal erosion, and help buffer communities against storms.
Your donation will fund the planting of more mangroves and ensure that the flats of the Northern Bahamas make a full recovery! Click below to donate TODAY.
