Ultimate Big Game Tourney?

[Fluka Brasi]

Which tournament is the best in the world? I love the coverage on this site of the MA 500 and WMO. MA 500 has been a dream of mine (all I need is the money, talent, and ride ), but I've lived in Jersey my whole life. If you could enter any in the world, which one?

I KNOW WHICH ONE HAS THE BEST CREWS ENTERED!


THAT WOULD BE THE HATTERAS VILLAGE OPEN....IN MAY EACH YEAR


60 BOATS....THE BEST OF CAROLINA

Of all the tournaments I fish every year I look forward to the WMO the most.

in my mind , its the barta, because its about the kids, not the prize money, the kids. jmho

Great but tough question... Ma500 is indeed classy and really represents the best in competion. WMO is massive. The exhileration of hitting that scale with that big crowd is awesome. Miami Contender billfish is mare about hard fishermen and not so much whos got the biggest fastest sled.
I'm going back for the first time in decades to the Bacardi. They have all kinds of fun side events. I don't drink any more but they have an hors d'ouvres party each boat supplying something. They have drink making competitions.
There was one in Texas, Poco Bueno that I havn't been in for a zillion years that really was a blast. It had a bidding calcutta that used to go through the roof. So much so most boats couldn't afford to buy themselves in. They would run a boston whaler out to a marker nad have guys reel it back in. Or they went stern to stern with tug of wars. Always a crazy time there... That would probably get the ultimate nod.
For good ol fun though I love regular guy events.I don't carewhat species. Just the ones that John Q public can afford to get in and really stand a chance at taking home the gold.

That bikini tournament Capt Josh just recapped for us

I think both the PC and MA 500 are far better tournaments then the wmo. Just my 2 cents.

I a not a Tourney Pro,but I have fished a few tourneys,from king tourneys to Marlin Tourneys.The best time I have had at a tourney was the Barta because I got to see my son catch,his first wahoo and mahi. The Best wk.I have had @ a tourney was the Big Rock,cause I don't get to expereince that kind of atmosphere much.And King tourneys always suck for me cause that's all I can afford and the weather always KICKS MY ASS!!!Calcutta Wahoo tourneys are great fun and have good food,but weather again. And Striper Tourneys are a blast!!!!!! But to keep it on subject Big Rock for me,until I get to fish more BIG GAME TOURNEY'S.
