JCAA’s 13th Annual 2007 Fluke Tournament Bigger and Better Port Prizes
by Phil Celmer
(from Jersey Coast Anglers Association May 2007
Newsletter)
Mark your calendar for June 9th (fishing) and June 15th (ceremony). This year’s tournament promises to be the best tournament in Jersey Coast’s 26 year history: super port prizes - 120 of them, and a fun time for you and your crew while you help JCAA maintain its ability to fight for your fishing rights. This tournament, in its thirteenth year, is one of the largest fishing events in the country.
The Jersey Coast Fluke Tournament is a unique concept that will again have twelve ports with each one having its own mini-tournament with its own set of 10 prizes for 2007. The fantastic Trump Marina Hotel Casino donates $10,000, JCAA $3,400 and Fisherman’s Headquarters in LBI donates $1,000 to sponsor the first place prizes of $1,200 cash for each port. Our second place sponsor,
Boater’s World, has a generous second place prize of a $750 gift certificate good in all Boater’s World stores. Third prize is a Raymarine
DS5000X T/M Digital High Definition Fish Finder. We are especially pleased that
Shimano Fishing will be a new major port sponsor this year providing a rod and reel at each port as well as combos for door prizes at the Awards Ceremony. Additional major port sponsors include: Sunglasses by Maui Jim Sunglasses,
$400 gift certificates from Minn Kota, tackle from American Fishing Wire/Hi-Seas, luggage sets from Canyon Gear International
and fishing equipment from New Jersey Angler and Nor’east Saltwater Magazines.
This year JCAA will be giving away over $110,000 in cash & prizes. Each contest is held at one of the twelve ports from Jersey City in the north to Fortescue in the south with each port serving as its own weigh station. Your crew, with up to six anglers, will compete for 10 prizes at the port you select.
All participants are automatically eligible for the Grand Prize; a model 1801 center console Century Boat with a 4 stroke Yamaha
outboard on a LoadRite trailer complete with a Fisher
made canvas cover. This fantastic fishing package will be awarded to a lucky angler after the huge door-prize drawing at
Trump Marina Hotel Casino in Atlantic City the following Friday, June 15th. Entry forms are available at www.jcaa.org as well as links to our great sponsors and the latest JCAA news.
