Beginning with our first tournament held in Acapulco, Mexico in 1946, ILTTA anglers have had the opportunity to fish in 23 different venues spread across 10 different countries. We have fished in both the North and South Atlantic, throughout the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico. We have traveled up and down the Pacific coast and even had the chance to fish in the Indian Ocean.
In our 71 years and 78 tournaments, ILTTA anglers have caught and released over 20,000 billfish.
We are proud to represent many countries from across the world. Our diversity helps us grow and appreciate fishing as tradition.
We have released 20,000 billfish since our origins and average 200 billfish releases at each of our venues.
Our passion for fishing expands the water. We promote conservation with a scholarship program at the University of Miami
ILTTA is comprised of an international array of members who make this great organization what it is today.
