Capt. Ron Hamlin passes away.We are saddened to hear of Capt. Ron Hamlin’s passing this weekend.
Hamlin was recognized not only for being famous because of his expertise at the helm of a sportfishing boat, but also for his contributions to billfish conservation.
His expertise at the helm won him awards year after year, including The Billfish Foundation’s Top Captain Award. After years of landing fish, he recognized that continuation of his profession depended upon the availability of healthy stocks of fish in the water for clients to catch. He then turned to catch and release fishing and became a voice for billfish conservation.
He was one of the first to recognize early on the conservation benefits of using non-offset circle hooks when fishing with natural baits. Hamlin supported adoption of these hooks and worked extensively to teach other captains how to rig and use the baited hooks.
TBF awarded Hamlin its most prestigious award, the Rybovich Lifetime Achievement Award in 2013, a much-deserved recognition. He was a living legend within the billfishing world, and will forever be a legend. We will miss him. Casa Vieja Lodge
