It's a great tourney! It's a ton of fun with a great crowd. I believe that there will be about 40 boats down in Islamorada this yr, and probably 60 plus up in Miami <hopefully>

The tournament is alot of fun. You get to fish a new area that you dont usually fish. Also there are 2 nights of fishing. The format lets your small fish count without killing them and still the ability to stick a fish over 100lbs.

If you fish, take alot of bait, the sharks are thick and there is no big squids in the local shops (it might have changed with all the daytime swordfisherman). I had to drive to miami at 6am to pick some up and drive back.

Hope to see you there.
