BTT’s 8th International Science Symposium was a poignant reminder of the relationships and shared passion for conservation that unite our community.
#BTTSymposium 2025 featured insightful presentations and engaging discussions led by leading scientists, resource managers, industry leaders, policymakers, legendary anglers, and top fishing guides from Florida and around the globe.
The triennial event was also a memorable celebration of our angling community! We inducted into the BTT Circle of Honor four remarkable individuals who have made outstanding contributions to conservation: Jeff Harkavy, Tim Borski, and Chris and Wendi Peterson. The special program emceed by Rob and Kaylee Fordyce also featured moving tributes to the late Flip Pallot by Rob Fordyce, Carl Allen of Walker’s Cay, and Flip’s daughter, Brooke.
