The Billfish Foundation

Events

An essential part of TBF’s mission, we are proud to not only advocate for anglers and billfish behind the scenes with policies and management strategies, but also attend in-person events where we can be involved in local and global angling affairs. Each year, TBF staff and consultants visit dozens of events, ranging from government panels and conferences to tournaments and concerts. We host fundraisers, award ceremonies, and do our best to show our community why we are the voice and face of sportfishing and billfish conservation.
