Billfishing Xtreme Release League, and
heavy on the Xtreme. The next level of competitive big game fishing.
In the Xtreme League, skill level requirements are pushed past
anything that has to-date been seen on the tournament landscape.
Flawless performance by every member of
the tournament-seasoned teams participating is necessary to capitalize
on the point structure
and anything less results in costly point penalties. A broken line
is more than a lost fish -- points are deducted from the team's
score. Angler Beware. A tag is required, but anywhere besides the
specified tag zone costs the team points -- forcing accuracy and
patience on the part of the crew. Even after the tag is in place,
the leader has to be cut short to get the full point value of the
fish.
Experience and finesse on the skippers'
part is key or the whole scenario breaks down. Nobody on the crew
gets a free ride.
In this
League, you perform or the team pays the price.
With over $600,000
dollars at stake and fish that can range from 50 lbs. to over
1000 lbs., all of which will be released, the excitement
is only matched by the drama. Billfishing Xtreme was designed with
three goals in mind. (1) Conservation and promotion of a healthy,
offshore fishery. (2) A competitive
format that challenges the skill of the entire team, and, (3) bringing
to the public the riveting excitement of big game fishing.
