This event is opened to everyone (families, groups of friends, staff groups, organizations, etc.). Fishing time may begin at 6:00 a.m. or later but will end at 5:00 p.m. At the end of the day, the boat with the most pounds of fish will win the grand prize of $1,500. Second prize will receive $750 and third prize will receive $500.
A prize will also be awarded to the angler of the biggest fish. Registration can be done at Caliente Restaurant and the office of the San Pedro Town Council. Registration is of $100 per boat (and covers as many anglers desired). All species caught need to be fished with hook and line. NO SPEARING. Qualifying fish include snappers, barracuda, jacks, groupers, tuna, mackerels, dolphin, all bill fish, skip jack, yellow fin and black fin. Fishers are reminded that the limit poundage per fish is one pound.
