September the 27th and 28th
Encore Discovery Diving Annual Spearfishing Tournament
This spring's Spearfishing Tournament was a lot of fun. Chris Kimrey took first overall and first in Sheepshead and Damon Hoard took second place in Sheepshead. Last year we held the tournament in the fall of the year and a lot of people seemed to enjoy it so we are going to hold a second tournament this year in September. The fall spearfishing tournament will be held the last weekend of September the 27th and 28th.
The fee to participate in the only Mid-Atlantic Spearfishing competition of its kind is $20.00. There will be two classes this year, a SCUBA class and Freediver class. Winners will be chosen by the largest fish in the following categories: Sheepshead, Grouper, Flounder, Black Sea Bass, Cobia and Miscellaneous Edible Fish (excluding Sharks, Rays and Amber Jack). Additionally, a Total Poundage Prize will be awarded by determining one fish from each category to get the total weight for each person. Weigh-in must occur each day at the docks at Discovery Diving by 7pm daily. An awards ceremony and photo session will be held on Sunday after weigh-in time.
Prizes will include Trophies and merchandise for 1st place in each category and cash prizes for 1st - 3rd place in each category.
This years sponsors include A.B. Biller, Global, Trident and Voyager Spears
We encourage individuals and clubs, SCUBA divers, free-divers and snorkelers to register. It is our intent to promote education of the undersea environment with this event.
