An extra “well done” to John Contello for reviving and releasing alive one of the two winning striped bass he weighed in.

Just about half of the boats entered weighed in striped bass. Most of the bass were caught on live bunkers or trolling - down the beach.


Thanks again to all our sponsors: Costa, Tony Maja, Kevin Bogan, Sephora, Eyes On First Ave, NJFishing.com and to everyone who helped make this a very successful event!


Best regards,

Congrats to all who participated and the winners. A 68 plus combined weight is very impressive. Great see see the Bucktails crew on top and managing to revive and release one of their fish.

As usual the HiMar team did a great job running the tournament and raising funds for the various charities they support, this one for our Vets.

Class acts all around and happy to be affiliated with the club.

Want to congratulate all the winners and thank the Hi mar Club members for putting together another great tournament. Covered a lot of ground on Saturday as we had great weather unfortutely for us the best we could manage was a 36.8 and 18. 7. We needed another fish like the first one but could not find one to bite.
