Sportfishing tourna- ments are nothing new. But how about a tour- nament that awards purses to the fishermen who land the biggest amber jack, jack crevalle or spadefish? As stocks of popular fish dwindle, tournament officials are like- ly to include a broader range of fish on their list of target species, says Jim Murray, Sea Grant's Marine Advisory Service director. To help incorporate underutilized species in tournaments, David Griffith and Jeff Johnson, anthropologists from East Carolina University's Insti- tute for Coastal and Marine Resources, and Murray have written a guide. Using Nontraditional Fish in Saltwater Sportfishing Tournaments. The re- port, published by Sea Grant, is part of a National Marine Fisheries Service study designed to promote underuti- lized species. The researchers examine the bene- fits of adding underutilized species to existing tournaments and of creating a new tournament specifically for them. To demonstrate the possibilities, the researchers tested their ideas. They worked with officials of a king mack- erel tournament to add an amberjack category. And, in cooperation with the South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium, they organized a new tournament for underutilized species in Beaufort County, Using Nontraditional Fish in Salt- water Sportfishing Tournaments out- lines the researchers' findings and sug- gestions.
