When it comes to research about tarpon, Dr. Jerry Ault—professor of marine biology and fisheries at the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science and Traveling Angler Scientist for Bonefish & Tarpon Trust—is one of the world’s foremost authorities. And when it comes to catching tarpon, guide Stu Apte is a legend. Anglers now have the opportunity to join this pair of luminaries on a tarpon-tagging expedition to El Pescador in Belize. More than just a fishing trip, the entire expedition has been designed to enable research and increase participants’ understanding of tarpon.
