Early registration is encouraged to secure a t-shirt for junior anglers. Early package pickup is Friday, Aug. 2, 6 p.m. – 8 p.m., at LJ Schooners Dockside Restaurant (in the lobby).
Awards will be given for first-, second-, and third-place finishers. Also, the Abram Sitcer Big Fish Award will be presented. Goody bags will be given to all registered teams and Junior Fishermen receive a tournament t-shirt.
