A donation to the Forage Fish Research Program supports annual graduate student research fellowships of small fish species that are critically important to Florida’s marine ecosystem. These forage species make up the prey base of our beloved game fish such as redfish, snook, sea trout, sailfish, and tarpon, among many others. Donations used to fund research fellowships lead to new means of understanding the trends in forage fish abundance and diversity as well as their linkages to Florida’s game fish, ensuring it remains the Fishing Capital of the World.
