BTC Tournament Details & Promo Video Link

Also i want to thank you guys for inviting us into your tourney, we will fish hard and represent the excellent rules and regulations you guys have (thuroughly ), maybe (misspelled) have layed down, the effort all of us have put into changing the outlook on sharkfishing (from killing everything we catch to quickly releasing everything) is a major accomplishment.
the way our shark club, mainly guided by you guys, have made that major switch is a blessing!!! my daughter and son may have the opportunity to land a 13 ft hammer some time down the road due to this change.

Again i for 1 notice the efforts, and i am thankful South Beach Seaweed (shannon)

Anglers Meeting:

The anglers meeting will be held on February 6th, 2009 at Juno Pier. The anglers meeting will be from 8:30-10:00pm. Anglers do not have to stay the whole time. They will only have to pick up their tournament supplies and sign their waiver. After completing these tasks, an angler can leave. All anglers fishing the tournament must show up to the anglers meeting. You can pay your entry fee at the anglers meeting if you choose. If we do not have payment from any angler after 10:00pm on February 6th, they will not be able to fish the tournament until we receive payment.

ATTENTION!

All anglers can post up their reports and pix on the Blacktip Challenge Reports Thread. This thread will be on boatlessfishing, landbasedsharkfishing, southfloridasharkclub, extremecoast, and pierandsurf. Feel free to post on whatever one.

All the required information and photos that are sent to submissions@blacktipchallenge.com will be posted on a different thread that will be locked on landbasedsharkfishing. The standings and all the sharks caught will be posted on this thread.
