Are there going to be any commonly found inshore fish such as Sheeps accepted in the Tournaments this year, So it will get more shore divers and small boat owners involved?
OP

I should be able to get Sheepshead in and we always do a jackpot for flounder.
Eligible fish are
amberjack, barracuda, flounder, grouper, snapper, Bluewater category are dolphin, tripletail and wahoo.

I'm going to try and work on some of these guys. A few of them has been asking questions about guns and all this summer would be a good time to start don't you think? If I recall you even offer a hunting class don't you.
No Trigger? Well one of my Buddies just arrived and is raring to go we'll be hunting Snapper Were in need of a fish fry for these cold beers that just seem to follow us home anymore
