Well done Team Eddie Lawler 

Eddy has tagged many hundreds of billfish over the few years he has been fishing in Exmouth. Last week he satellite tagged fish too. Exmouth Game Fishing Club has won top tagging club in Australia more than once, which is a great effort in this remote location. From this capture, we will gain more information on these species and we believe in highlighting the positives of recreational fishing to help others learn, respect and appreciate the ocean and fish within it.

Below is a link to another article about this recent capture and it also addresses other issues related to modern day gamefishing including the economic and public perception of such. Worth a read.
