JCAA 2001 Fluke Tournament
(from Jersey Coast Anglers Association February 2000 Newsletter)
Mark your Calendar now for the 7th
annual Jersey Coast Fluke Tournament. It is tentatively scheduled for Saturday June 9th, 2001. This date will be firmed up once we get the dates
for the new Fluke Season for 2001. The Jersey Coast Fluke Tournament is a unique concept
that will now include eleven mini-tournaments, each with its own set of prizes. Each contest is held at one of the eleven ports
from Jersey City in the north to Fortescue in the south.
You will compete for over $2,300 in prizes for the port you select including
a first place prize of $1,000 for the heaviest fish weighed in at your port. All participants are automatically eligible for
the Grand Prize of a boat, motor and trailer that will be selected during the door-prize
drawing at Resorts Hotel Casino in Atlantic
City the following Friday. So in addition to
your chance to win any of the many other port prizes (to be announced) by using your
fishing skill, every boat entered has a shot to also win the Grand Prize, a Cobia Boat and
Yamaha motor plus a Shoreland’r trailer package, and a host of other door prizes. All door prizes will
be given away as part of the huge drawing at Resorts
Hotel Casino.
This fun-packed event is important to
all recreational fishermen. The Jersey Coast
Anglers Association, the eyes, ears and voice of recreational fishermen in New Jersey, has
been working hard to protect the marine environment and the fisheries we enjoy as part of
this great sport we all love. With 20 years experience carrying out this important work
JCAA is a leading advocacy group on the East Coast. JCAA,
a non profit, volunteer association, works diligently with local and state government to
increase fishing access, expand fishing opportunities and also operates one of the most
successful youth education programs anywhere in the
country. By entering the Jersey Coast Fluke
Tournament, we all benefit as the proceeds go to help JCAA continue its work. Entry slips will be available in up-coming issues
as prizes are firmed.
