HUNDREDS OF CHANCES TO WIN
This event is actually ten mini-tournaments in one. Each weigh station has its own set of prizes for the heaviest fluke brought to the scales including $1,200 cash for first place: LBI port donated by Fisherman Headquarters, Manasquan port donated by Canyon Reels, Atlantic City port donated by Golden Nugget and the rest of the ports donated by JCAA, a Yukon Cooler donated by Igloo/Yukon Coolers, trolling motors donated by Minn Kota, bottom paint donated by Interlux Paint, $250 in gift certificates donated by West Marine, rods donated by Shakespeare, sunglasses donated by Costa, Gulp bait donated by Berkeley, reels donated by Penn, fishing line donated by Spiderwire and --------donated by Nor'east Saltwater Magazine. That's a total of 100 port prizes! But there is more, much more! Contestants register in one of 10 ports from Sandy Hook to Fortescue, each with easy access weigh stations. You compete only against those boats registered in that port for the generous list of port prizes.

Once again, the Golden Nugget Hotel Casino has opened its arms and its pocketbook to help us and we can't thank them enough! We hope you will remember they are concerned about your fishing and the ocean environment any time you are heading to Atlantic City because we sure do! This year the JCAA wishes to welcome aboard IglooYukon/ Coolers as a brand new port prize sponsor. Come to the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City and have a great time!

THE DRAWING WITHIN THE TOURNAMENT
In addition to your chance to win any of the port prizes by using your fishing skills, every boat entered has a shot at winning the Grand Prize of $5,000 and a host of door prizes. These will be given away as part of a huge drawing at the gala awards ceremony hosted by the Golden Nugget Hotel Casino in Atlantic City on September 6th, 2013. At least one member from your crew must be present for you to win these door prizes. There will be plenty of fun at the awards ceremony and you will have a chance to meet the JCAA volunteer staff. Tournament T-shirts and hats will be available. Come early and meet the sponsors and have fun! Port prizes and door prizes will, once again, be presented at the event by our master of ceremonies, Dr. Pat Donnelly.

PORT UPDATE
Due to Hurricane Sandy, tournament entries this year are way down so there is a good chance in taking a prize with a small, (but legal) fish. As of Wednesday , August 14th, here are the ports and the number of entrants registered in each port:

Manasquan River - 33 entrants
Sandy Hook - 27 entrants
Barnegat Inlet - 29 entrants
LBI -20 entrants
Shark River -22 entrants
Great Bay - 22 entrants
Cape May - 141 entrants
Fortescue -9 entrants
Ocean City - 8 entrants
Atlantic City - 7 entrants

Even though entries are down, we are still paying out thousands of dollars in port prize money, the $5,000 Grand Prize drawing in AC and the many door prizes that will be given away also in AC. So get your entry in now!

Thank you,
Paul Turi

About Jersey Coast Anglers Association

The Jersey Coast Anglers Association is a non-profit organization formed in 1981. The original objective of the JCAA was to combine a loosely fragmented group of marine sportfishing clubs in order to form and promote a united consensus on issues relevant to saltwater anglers in New Jersey. Over the years, the mission of the JCAA has remained unchanged, but now has the added goal of joining forces with organizations having similar objectives in states along the East Coast and national organizations. While the JCAA is relatively young, it has emerged as the most effective organization of its kind on the East Coast.
