Capt. Bouncer Smith inducted into IGFA Legendary Captains & Crew!
Infectious enthusiasm could easily be the catch phrase for fishing on Bouncer’s Dusky. For a big and energetic guy Bouncer always manages to convey the best of humanity. He is known for always treating people with kindness and dignity. On top of that he is a fabulous fisherman. His clients have caught a long list of World Record fish. He is just as proud of all the families who fish with him and all the kids who can say they caught their “First ________ (fish in the blank)” fishing with Bouncer.

The event was held in recognition of the one year anniversary of the ship's sinking as an artificial reef.
Grand Cayman - January 5, 2012 - In celebrating the first anniversary of the sinking of the <a title="Sinking of the USS Kittiwake" href="http://guyharvey.wordpress.com/2011/01/09/cayman-islands-creates-new-artificial-reef-with-sinking-of-the-ex-uss-kittiwake/" target="_blank">USS Kittiwake</a> as an artificial reef, The <a title="CITA web site" href="http://www.cita.ky/" target="_blank">Cayman Islands Tourism Association</a> recently presented Cayman resident and celebrated marine wildlife artist and conservationist <a title="Guy Harvey Inc. web site" href="http://www.guyharvey.com" target="_blank">Dr. Guy Harvey</a> with a certificate of appreciation.
An ardent supporter of the project, Dr. Harvey was on hand a year ago and photographed the sinking of the USS Kittiwake and its short journey to the bottom, 64ft below the surface off the north end of <a title="About Seven Mile Beach" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Mile_Beach,_Grand_Cayman" target="_blank">Seven Mile Beach</a>. The <a title="GHRI web site" href="http://www.nova.edu/ocean/ghri/" target="_blank">Guy Harvey Research Institute</a> served as one of the many original sponsors of the effort to make the USS Kittiwake an artificial reef. The effort received substantial support from the local dive and business communities as well as the government.

Simply download the iGHOFish app available free on smart phones and Google Play. Then start fishing, log your catches, releases and even misses. You don't even have to catch a fish to win a prize in this cyber tournament; just log your trips. Keep tabs on the leaderboard at <a href="http://ghofish.com/">GHOFISH.com</a>
The app is powered by iAngler using software developed by the non-profit Snook & Gamefish Foundation's Angler Action program. All data gathered helps fisheries scientists and managers learn more about how many fish are being harvested, released, consumed by predators, or lost to broken lines or pulled hooks. The Angler Action program just logged its 50,000th fish and its information is used by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to conduct stock assessments for snook and redfish.
"The data is really starting to come in; the groundswell is growing," said Foundation executive director Brett Fitzgerald. "It's going to give a lot of credibility to recreational anglers that we've never had before."
One species where Florida fisheries managers are short on data is barracuda-- an important gamefish in the Keys and South Florida whose numbers have declined recently. The FWC adopted new recreational and commercial bag limits for the species that take effect Nov. 1. In Miami-Dade, Broward, Monroe, Collier, Palm Beach and Martin counties, recreational anglers and commercial fishers will be limited to two fish per person per day with a daily vessel limit of six fish. The commission held off on imposing size limits, wanting to gather more data from fishermen (you) before considering any more management measures.
And if you need even more incentive to pay attention to cudas, the Snook & Gamefish Foundation will hold a catch-photo-release tournament Oct. 9-11 targeting cudas, snook, redfish, Goliath grouper, and largemouth bass. It's a fish-anywhere event with a $10 entry fee and a virtual captains' meeting and you don't have to be present to win. But festivities will go on all weekend long at Due South Brewery in Boynton Beach, FL. Valuable prizes will be awarded, including Guy Harvey swag. For more information, go to the <a href="http://www.ianglertournament.com/sgfs-october-fishfest-and-research-party" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tournament web site</a>.
No reason why you can't double-dip with the "Fish for the Future" Tournament.
