MAY 24th OPENING DAY FLOUNDER TOURNEY!!!

Hello Ladies and Gents, I'm reaching out for anyone who might be interested in signing up for this little tournament where the mind frame is set differently than many tournaments. This is a fun based tourney where all of the entry fees and raffle $$ gets donated to the Save the Summer Flounder Fishing Fund(ssfff).

This website has great fisherman from all over the world and it is full of tremendous amount of information from fly fishing the backs to catching world record Blue Marlin in the deep. For most in Southern Jersey, flounder fishing in the back bays was the start and it hopefully is still a fun pass time for some regardless of records they might achieve or how many monsters they reel up. Nothing like landing a big fluke on light tackle---at least to me.

I don't want anyone thinking I'm personally attached to the SSFFF organization...I came up with the idea to simply raise money for a shot of a flounder fishing future here in NJ and up and down the coast. This tourney has been started up grass roots style and all of our great prizes have been donated by various supporters of this event. With out them...this couldn't have been started. This tourney has evolved from a "hopefully let's get 10-20 boats in it" to hoping to raise some serious $$ for this fund.

The entry fee is $25 per angler....the rules are simple...fish legally....obey all state/federal regulations...all waters are open to fish,weigh in by 5pm at No Bones Bait and Tackle in Wildwood NJ and have a good time. You can weigh in by Car/boat/plane we don't care as long as it's in by 5pm...again this is a laid back tourney, mentality of "winning" isn't the reason behind this thing, it's to have fun...enjoy yourselves for some, do something they don't do often and have a great time doing it!! We will have a beef and beer provided from Uries Seafood Restaurant for an additional $15 to cover food. All of the Entry fees are donated, as well as raffle ticket sales.

We will have a calcutta set-up for those who wish to fish where it's $20 per boat 50% goes to the single heaviest fish and 50% goes to the top 3 heaviest fish weighed in.

We will have Juniors Division(single heaviest fish, Boys and Girls), Adults Division top 3 heaviest fish (1st-3rd place)....each junior and the top Adult division winner will be awarded a Custom Spinning Rod by Fishpoison Custom Rods. Also trophies will be awarded as well

I am not getting much attention from the Anglers on this site, and that's fine, just tossing it out there to see if anyone hasn't seen this or not.

Here is an online entry form...all the raffle proceeds and the entry fee is getting donated to the SSFFF.
