In this special episode of Connected By Water, we’re joined by Dr. Aaron Adams, Director of Science and Conservation for Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (BTT). With decades of experience as a marine biologist, passionate angler and surfer, Dr. Adams brings a unique perspective on the science and soul behind the flats fisheries we love.
We dive into the rich history of BTT—how it began, why it matters, and the critical role it plays in conserving bonefish, tarpon, and permit across the Western Hemisphere. Dr. Adams breaks down the organization’s science-based approach to protecting these iconic species and the fragile habitats they depend on.
From tracking migratory patterns and restoring spawning grounds to partnering with governments and research institutions across the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, BTT is leading the charge in fisheries conservation. Dr. Adams also shares updates on the latest groundbreaking initiatives and how anglers and the broader community can get involved.
Whether you're a lifelong flats angler or just curious about marine conservation, this episode offers an inspiring and eye-opening look into the work being done to ensure these legendary fish and their habitats thrive for generations to come.
