The two contests will be as follows:
Fish any three days of your choosing. Simply send an email to Fishing@RodandGun.org the day before or morning of your fishing day(s). That’s all you have to do to enter!
We have two categories, flats and offshore.
- For the flats category, the species are bonefish, tarpon, snook and permit (HOWEVER, Permit will be removed starting April 1 – per FWC spawning closure). 300 points are awarded for any caught on fly, and 100 points per fish on spinning rod.
- For the offshore category, the targets are sailfish, tuna, mahi, wahoo, kingfish, mutton snapper and swordfish. For sailfish, you receive 100 points on spinning tackle and 300 points on fly rod for those adventurous anglers. 200 points are awarded per swordfish and 25 points for all other offshore fish, with a maximum of 3 of each species.
At the end of the day, simply email your tally to Fishing@RodandGun.org.
The winner in each category will receive $500, $250 to second place, and $100 to third place!
