Why ROFFS™ is Best?

As more and more so-called “fish finding” services, internet websites, and apps. become available, choosing ROFFS™ over others may be less of an obvious decision now. There are a number of so-called “services,” that offer anything from simple sea surface temperature, chlorophyll, altimeter contour maps to very pretty color satellite images including ocean models. However, ROFFS™ is still the BEST because we: 1) provide a comprehensive fishing analysis that is designed for fishing; 2) integrate all the important ocean conditions (satellite and non-satellite); 3) evaluate how these conditions are related to locating feeding concentrations of fish based on decades of research, fishing experience, and success; 4) have an extensive fishing information network; 5) send the information in an easy to use format; and 6) provide the most value for your money and time.

NOVA Halts Longline Research
Press Release Courtesy: The Billfish Foundation | September 27, 2017

The Billfish Foundation (TBF) respects the wisdom of Dr. George L. Hanbury, II, President of NOVA Southeastern University for the decision to no longer continue the federally permitted pelagic longline research now underway inside Florida’s east coast closed zone.

TBF recently brought to the attention of Dr. Hanbury threats the longline closed zone research could have on the university’s fine reputation in the area of science and community relations (see TBF’s letter to Dr. Hanbury at www.billfish.org). The university has received high acclaim from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a High Research and Community Engagement University, recognition given to only 37 universities.

Yesterday TBF’s president Ellen Peel received a message from Dr. Richard Dodge, a highly respected scientist at NOVA, stating that the university will not continue the longline research in Florida’s east coast closed zone. Peel says “her respect for the university and its president is reinforced with this decision; Dr. Hanbury continues to adhere to high standards in science and community relations.”

Check this out. We went out for Blues this weekend and spotted this 500 lbs. fish tailing on the surface. First time I managed to film a Blue even before it came into the spread. It wasn’t camera shy! Video Courtesy: Bluewatershots | Facebook
