STREAMING VIDEOS FROM OUR SPONSORS AND THE WCBRT

Most of our first videos were filmed on location by Richard Chudy and Dolores Peralta of Cabo's Best at the Fred Hall Boat, Fishing Tackle and Travel Show in Long Beach, California. Tournament Director David Brackmann interviewed many of our sponsors on why they opted to get involved with our tournament as well as the in's and out's of fishing circle hooks. We'd like to thank our many, sponsors and supporters who took the time from their busy event schedules to share their thoughts on billfish conservation, the use of circle hooks and the importance of promoting all-release tournaments around the world - starting with the WCBRT in Cabo San Lucas.
