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!

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.
