Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Recognizing that with privilege comes responsibility, the mission of the sportfishing conservancy is to empower sportsmen to fulfill and celebrate their commitment to their sport and to real world conservation.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
GENERAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS - ACTIVITIES EDUCATING FISHERMEN AND THE PUBLIC OF THE RESPONSIBILITY AND COMMITMENT OF SPORTFISHING AND THE CONSERVATION OF MARINE RESOURCES$14,712-
NO MOTOR TOURNAMENT - The No Motor Tournament is held annually in Carpinteria in conjunction with United Anglers. All forms of fishing are okay as long as done using human power [i.e. no motor boats]. The winner is determined by total length of legal fish caught and released. The tournament highlights the importance of the Carpinteria Salt Marsh in providing a nursery for marine species with proceeds donated to The Land Trust of Santa Barbara County. Prizes and most administrative costs are donated.$8,275-
AMIGOS DEL AIRE LIBRE - Spanish speakers are an underserved community, particularly with regards to outdoor activities. Spanish speakers fish but many learned fishing as a means to put dinner on the table. Once subsistence fishing is no longer necessary however, they are unaware of the need to and ways to release fish alive. Our Best Practices focuses on education and access.$4,000-
DECOMMISSIONING - Some of oil rigs in the Santa Barbara Channel are reaching the end of their useful life. California law provides for that each platform can be evaluated to determine whether partial or total removal results in the highest net environmental benefit but unfortunately does not create a workable process to do so. The platforms provide a rich environment for aquatic life. Cost savings in the case of partial removal would in part establish an endowment for the ocean to fund research. The Sportfishing Conservancy has educated other parties interested in the marine environment to the benefits of partial removal and supported proposed changes to the law to make this doable.$3,188-
