A bill that supports important fishing access and fisheries conservation programs is up for reauthorization in Congress. Known as the America’s Conservation Enhancement (ACE) Reauthorization Act, this bill continues and strengthens numerous federal programs that would otherwise expire next year. The Senate version has already passed. Now it’s the turn of the U.S. House and we need your help to get it across the finish line.
Tell your Representative that you support this important legislation and that you think they should too. 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐈𝐍 𝐁𝐈𝐎

On July 12, recreational anglers will get one day to catch red snapper in the South Atlantic despite the fishery being more abundant than at any point in recent history.
Working for YOU
We take care of the politics so you can concentrate on growing your business.
The recreational fishing community cares about whale conservation but we need a smarter approach!
Efforts are underway to prevent the use of lead tackle for fishing despite scant evidence that using lead has a harmful impact on wildlife populations.
Better access and better fishing on federal lands and waters.
Taking kids fishing just a few times creates a lifelong love of the sport!
