Dr. Aaron Adams, Director of Operations for Bonefish & TarponTrust, as well as a Senior Scientist at Mote Marine Laboratory discusses BTT initiatives with legendary angler and conservationist Lefty Kreh. The BTT symposium was a two day affair held at the IGFA in Dania Beach, Florida in November of 2011. Guides and anglers from California to Canada to Key West to Belize and the Bahamas mixed with scientists to hear conservation reports and long term goals for fisheries holding tarpon, bonefish and permit. In addition, attendees enjoyed celebrity panel forums on how to catch tarpon, bonefish and permit on a fly. Also, there were fly casting demonstrations with Joan Wulff, Lefty and others and continuos fly tying instructions with Don Reed and Bob Popovic’s - two of the most innovative saltwater tyers.
