Mr. Phil Morlock, Vice-President of Advocacy & Government Affairs, Shimano North America, has been making sure competitive Fishing Events utilize Best conservation practices for years. He continues to encourage those anglers contemplating taking part in competitive fishing events to be informed and to carefully review how fish are handled and released before deciding to participate.

Shimano promotes scientifically based management and environmentally sustainable uses of freshwater and marine fisheries.
