Power Pole Conservation Division presented by Bull Bay Rods

Power Pole Conservation Division presented by Bull Bay Rods is an important aspect of STAR. This Division plays a vital role in helping FWC and other fisheries management groups gather recreational catch data.

All species of fish caught by STAR entrants are eligible for entry in the Conservation Division.

All entries must be submitted either on or with the official STAR measuring device. We ask that you use special consideration with juvenile trout, snook, redfish, Tany Tarpon or Bonefish and try not to handle if possible, Please try to keep fish in the water and take picture with measuring device in the water with the fish.

All fish entries in the Conservation Division are required to be photographed on or with the 2024 Official Measuring Device.

The winners of the Conservation Division will be determined by a random drawing of all entries in the division.

The STAR Committee emphasizes the importance of following all FWC regulations regarding the handling of all species.

The Conservation and Trash are the only STAR Divisions in which a registered competition angler may submit more than three entries per competition day.
