Mission Statement:
To encourage the sport of underwater spearfishing as a recreation and a potential
source of diving knowledge, with activities extending from simple diving to exploration of the
undersea to recommended safe limits for sport divers, and to further the sport of diving through
educational programs with any interested organizations!
***Tarpon Study***
William Stein, MD and a PhD Candidate Student at UNO is doing a study on Tarpon.
Dr. Stein gave us a talk on Tarpon at this year’s Council Meeting. He has requested that if any large tarpon is landed
that he be given a call at (415)779-5261 (please save the number in your cell phone) so either he or one of his lab partners
can do a study on the fish. The out come of this study may prove that platforms have become an important and/or essential
habitat for Tarpon during part of their lifecycle.
