Dear Anglers:
With a full appreciation of your eagerness to just get out and fish,
I’d like to thank all anglers and captains for taking part in the
21st Annual Cayman Islands International Fishing Tournament
CICO Bimini Start.
In the spirit of good sportsmanship and conservation, please
remember to protect the environment and its species in any way
you can. Stripping"drifts" of juvenile fish simply makes no sense
and contributes to the annihilation of that species. For those
participating in the "Bill Fish Release Jack Pot", word of mouth
goes a long way, so "big-it-up!"
See you all at the Bimini Start!
Sincerely, Lee Foster - Chairman
