A group of thirty-five local sports-fisherman got together and formed the West Palm Beach Fishing Club on October 9, 1934 making it one of the oldest sport fishing clubs in the country. The club was formed as a way of helping the charter boat captains at the city marina across the street from the club who were struggling after having come out of the Great Depression. It also served as a way to boost the economy by luring people into the area for fishing. Some people who came to visit ended up moving to the area permanently. The club raised money and built their Dade County pine clubhouse which opened on January 2,1941. In the early days they were part of Palm Beach's Parks and Recreation Department but they are now an independent institution. The year after the club formed they held their first Silver Sailfish Derby which has become the clubs marquee event and is the oldest sailfish tournament. The event took advantage of the sailfish migration during Florida's winter and was created to lure tourist dollars. It has become a nationally covered sporting event. Some members sign their children up as soon as they are born. It is a club tradition to grant club members babies membership at birth. There are 1,400 members today and anyone can belong across the United States. In addition to promoting the recreational activity of fishing the club seeks to aid the economy and to protect the environment. They helped develop artificial reefs that they are still actively involved in. They also planted mangrove seedlings to clean the water and keep the fishing habitat healthy. The club started conservation programs like the red release pennant in the 1930's so fisherman could put up pennants to signify how many sailfish they caught and then release them back into the ocean to preserve their population. This protects the limited resource of the fish. They also promote tag and release and fish friendly circle hooks that are used in all of tournaments. They developed a snook sling to weigh the fish instead of hanging the fish up by a hook in their mouth which hurts them. The Fishing Club helped to choose the sailfish as the state saltwater fish in order to bring awareness about the decline of the species. The West Palm Beach Fishing Club is very involved with the community youth. They provide scholarships at local schools and encourage marine biology students. For the past 26 years they have sponsored a kids fishing day for the past 26 years to introduce at risk children to fishing by teaching them the sport, giving them a rod, and a prize. Although many fishing clubs have disappeared, this club is still going strong with monthly seminars and national speakers. Palm Beach is still attracting the world's best anglers today. Members of the club are enjoying finishing while championing catch and release and other conservation programs. It is important to the club to create the next generation of anglers who are also stewards of the environment.
