NEW MESSAGE BOARD FORUM
The group that regulates commercial fishing in Costa Rica is INCOPESCA. They recently had the legal limit of Sailfish that long-line fishing boats may keep raised to 15% of their total catch. Now they want to increase that to 25% of total catch and allow 35% in the months of January through April, high season for Sailfish and Marlin in the Pacific Coastal Waters.
They are targeting Sailfish as a commercial fish. Other Central American countries have realized the value of Sailfish to their economy as a sport fish and prohibit commercial fishing for them. If you are a captain or fisherman it's time to speak up. Please take 5 minutes and send a mail encouraging the Costa Rican government to prohibit the commercial fishing of Sailfish and Marlin. A Sailfish that can be caught and released numerous times is better for the Costa Rican economy than a Sailfish that is placed dead on a dock.
Please express your opinion to:
Oscar Arias, President of Costa Rica-direct to his assistant- laurasolis@casapres.go.cr
Carlos Ricardo Benavides, Minister of Tourism, crbenavides@ict.go.cr
Carlos Villalobos, Executive President of ICOPESCA fax 2661-1760
The Presidents office says fax is the best way to contact the President.
Oscar Arias Presidents of Costa Rica's personal fax
Fax in Costa Rica # 2253-9078
From the outside the country #011-506-2253-9078
PLEASE take 5 minutes and write a short note to the President and fax it to him.
