“ Proud to Support a Tournament that Gives Back”
“I’ve fished in tournaments up and down the coast, and this one stands out. Everything was well run—from check-in to weigh-in—and you can tell the folks behind it truly care. The competition was solid, and the energy at the docks was electric. Already counting down to next year!”
— Trey T.
“Top-Notch Tournament with a Hometown Feel”
“This tournament keeps getting better every year. The competition is friendly but fierce, and the hospitality is second to none. From the captain’s meeting to the final weigh-in, everything runs smooth. Plus, it feels good knowing we’re fishing for more than just prize money—we’re giving back.”
