Rules & Agreement

    • All fish must be caught using legal North Carolina state methods, by a licensed angler. Parkview Baptist Church and the Kennedy Home for Children are not responsible for any legal violations.

 

    • Entries are taken by an individual person (fish as many people as you want on your boat).

 

    • The tournament will run from sunrise on August 23, 2025, until noon on January 3, 2026. You can fish as much as you would like in this time window. There is no need to declare when you fish.

 

    • Official weigh-in for entries is at Chasin Tails located at 709 Atlantic Beach Causeway, Atlantic Beach, NC. All entries will be recorded in the official logbook, and each angler will receive a carbon copy. We recommend anglers keep the carbon copies for reference.

 

    • Winners for each category and prizes will be announced on in January 2026, at the Kennedy Home for Children Coastal Fishing Tournament Dinner (TBD).

 

    • The tournament’s purpose is to benefit the Kennedy home for Children, have fun and fellowship, and provide fish for the awards dinner. All proceeds from entry fees go to the Kennedy Home for Children.
