Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina Billfish Tournament

 

CHARLESTON HARBOR RESORT BILLFISH TOURNAMENT IS MOVING DATES TO MAY 2012

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:   Charleston Harbor Resort Billfish Tournament is moving.  The original tournament was scheduled to take place July 13 - 16, 2011.  However, the resort and marina have decided to move their inaugral tournament to May of 2012.

By July, most billfish have already moved up the coast and with an already busy fishing agenda, it makes sense to move the dates to May when the fish are more likely to be in our waters.  Tracy Mitchell, Director of Sales and Marketing, adds "We are looking for a new and fresh way to market our inaugural tournament that sets us apart from the already well established Governor's Cup series.  This may include Captain's Choice fishing 3 out of 5 days, adding different categories, adding a small boat series, and some other ideas that we are throwing around."

Charleston Harbor Resort & Marina has been host to numerous fishing tournaments in the past which include: Fishing for Miracles, Red Bone "Catch the Cure" for Cystic Fibrosis, and the Carolina Billfish Classic.  For more information about Charleston Harbor Resort Fishing tournaments, visit www.charlestonharbormarina.com.
