Fellow Club
PRLTA was founded in October of 1962. When it became a reality, sport fishing as we know it today was in its infancy in Puerto Rico. Juan Casellas invited a small group of friends to devise a way to conduct friendly wars of light lines fishing in a style unfamiliar to many participants.
Since its foundation the PRLTA has celebrated many tournaments every year, both offshore and inshore, where men, women and children participate on equal standing, and enjoy good fishing and fun on all corners of the island.
The club is devoted to light tackle angling (2 lb to 30 lb ) lines. The club has teams that compete internationally (ILLTA, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, etc). We hold 3 billfish tournaments, 3 inshore tournaments and one in Cap Cana, Dominican Republic. All our tournaments are honor system, no photos, movies, etc.
All tournaments are release except dolphin. Tournaments, including offshore, inshore, international, and an annual tournament that includes all three. The honor system is followed.
The future of the PRLTA lies in our children to keep fishing and making friends while conserving and protecting the national resources of fishery.
