My son and I fished the Catch a Cure at Starvation last weekend. It was our first open water tournament. What a well ran event for a great cause. I would highly recommend if you have any interest in fishing a tournament, to do this one. The organization, people and gathering where top notch. We fished the walleye side and did surprisingly well for a couple rookies. We ended up catching between 20-25 walleye, and only could manage a weigh in bag of 4 legal (12”) fish. I’m not sure where we placed, but I’m thinking somewhere around the middle. In this tournament, the winners donate their prize money back to the charity, camp Hobe. That is a retreat for family’s that are dealing with a child that has cancer. I would highly recommend doing this event if you are even slightly interested and have an extra $125 that you can donate to Camp Hobe. I think we are going to fish in the Classic in September. That ought to be a humbling experience.
