WHY ARE WE HAVING A GHOST TRAP RODEO? - Ghost fishing is defined as unattended fishing by lost and abandoned fishing gear (such as traps, nets, monofilament line and lures) until the gear is degraded enough to allow for escape - and it’s a real problem throughout the state of Florida. The Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commission estimates that 250,000 derelict crab traps are added to the Gulf of Mexico waters each year. In Florida, hundreds of thousands of traps are fished year around, with between 30% and 50% of those traps lost, annually, to continue ghost fishing. Tampa Bay is home to a vibrant crab fishery, for both stone crabs and blue crabs, with both recreational and commercial participants experiencing occasional trap losses - especially after named storms such as Hurricanes Irma and Michael. Today, best estimates put Tampa Bay's number of active ghost traps somewhere near 10,000 traps. These traps kill their intended species, plus a variety of unintended bycatch species; and these traps decrease our natural resources through unchecked kills (examples: stone crabs, sheepshead, rays), accidental entanglements (examples: sea turtles, manatees, saw fish), and essential fish habitat damage. The Ghost Trap Rodeo event series is an opportunity for knowledgeable local anglers and boaters to come together and launch their shallow draft vessels and paddle-craft in search of these ghost traps and other types of marine debris, to participate in citizen science (via bycatch species data inventory), for the conservation of the Tampa Bay estuary, and with the opportunity to win a great prize - like a PowerPole Shallow Water Anchoring System, a pair of Costa Polarized Sunglasses, Engel Cooler, or West Marine Gift Card! Refreshments and event apparel will be provided for free to registered volunteer wranglers!

Ocean Aid 360 is actively seeking additional support to replicate The Ghost Trap Rodeo Event Series in recognized coastal hotspots, where our innovative brand of competitive clean-up programming can reduce mortality for marine life by removing abandoned fishing gear from the environment while also educating coastal residents about the issue and working with those user groups to improve their methodology and reduce fishing gear losses which damage our shared natural resources and essential fisheries habitat.

Thank you for considering support to Ocean Aid 360, and to your marine resources!
