The Billfish Foundation is a non-profit organization focused on conserving and enhancing billfish populations worldwide. It is based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and relies on a membership-based network that includes anglers, captains, mates, scientists, policymakers, tournament directors, clubs, and sportfishing businesses. Its work rests on three pillars—research, education, and advocacy—to formulate marine conservation strategies that protect ocean ecosystems and support recreational fishing communities. The foundation seeks practical, science-informed solutions that balance conservation with angler interests and aims to maintain fishing opportunities. In 2026, long-time president Ellen Peel retired after more than thirty years leading the organization.
