Catch a Florida Memory

Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has launched Catch a Florida Memory saltwater angler recognition program.
The Catch a Florida Memory program recognizes anglers for their fishing skills and promotes the targeting of multiple species, thus decreasing fishing pressure on the most commonly sought-after species.

Anglers of all ages and skills can earn prizes, recognition and bragging rights while supporting marine fisheries conservation. Anglers submit photos to qualify for one of FWC’s three Saltwater Angler Recognition Programs. Whether you’ve caught a Saltwater Reel Big Fish, a Grand Slam or you’re crossing new species off your Saltwater Life List, there is a challenge for anglers of every level!
