2005 JCAA Fluke Tournament
Bigger and Better Port Prizes

by Phil Celmer

(from Jersey Coast Anglers Association March 2005 Newsletter)

Mark your calendar for June 11th (fishing) and June 17th (ceremony). This year’s tournament promises to be the best tournament in Jersey Coast history: super port prizes - 120 of them - and a fun time for all while you help JCAA maintain its ability to fight for your fishing rights. This tournament, in its eleventh year, is now 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 not 9, but 10 prizes for 2005. The fantastic Trump Marina Hotel Casino and JCAA will sponsor the first place prizes. This year again each of the twelve first place prizes will be $1,200. 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. Raymarine’s third prize is a proven state of the art DS4000X T/M Digital High Definition Fish Finder. We are especially pleased that Maui Jim Sunglasses will be a new major port sponsor this year. Additional major port sponsors include: Abu Garcia/Fenwick, Canyon Gear International, American Fishing Wire/Hi-Seas, Reel Saver and New Jersey Angler Magazine and others.

This year we 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 Century 1801 center console with a 4 stroke Yamaha outboard and LoadRite trailer. 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 17th. Thanks to Rich Pasko’s efforts this year door prizes are again on track to really create some happy anglers at the ceremony.
