The Louisiana Saltwater Series was developed by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) in conjunction with the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Foundation to promote the conservation of Louisiana’s saltwater sport fish resources. Through this catch-and-release saltwater fishing series, LDWF strives to enhance the resource while providing a competitive opportunity for avid fishermen and newcomers alike.
The 2010 Louisiana Saltwater Series will target the tag-and-release of one of Louisiana’s most valuable sport fish, redfish. This inaugural series will be comprised of five fishing events and a championship event. LDWF personnel will be on hand at each tournament to assist with the tag and release of all weighed fish. Participation in the tournaments provides anglers with the opportunity to give back to the resource.
