Costa Sunglasses and Project Permit

A few weeks ago Lisa Jones of Full Circle Public Relations sent along an email about a new program that Costa Sunglasses is a significant part of called "Project Permit"

"I wanted to make sure you knew about this latest initiative called “Project Permit.” It’s the first known extensive permit tagging program taking place in Florida, as part of a partnership with the Bonefish &Tarpon Trust and Costa Sunglasses."

"The program hopes to activate fisherman to tag more than 6,000 permit as they’re out fishing this season. The data that comes back over the next five years will serve to guide policy and regulations formed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission.

Project Permit will kick off on March 14 in Key West at the March Merkin fishing tournament. Anglers can start requesting their tagging kits now."

Check out the "Protect Out There" tab on the Costa Sunglasses website for more information on the growing list of programs and organizations that they support which are making a difference in the waters we all fish.
