10th Surf Turkey Tournament Returns Thanksgiving Weekend - The Fisherman

10th Surf Turkey Tournament Returns Thanksgiving Weekend

Be sure to celebrate the Thanksgiving weekend in the Central Jersey surf with the 10th Annual Surf Turkey Tournament from November 24-27.  Presented by Charlie’s Bait and Tackle in in Normandy Beach, this year’s tournament is catch and release, and the cash prizes are for first and second longest striped bass and a five fish stringer.

Presented by Charlie’s Bait and Tackle in Normandy Beach, the tournament will kick off at 5 a.m. on the Wednesday prior to Thanksgiving and runs through Saturday, November 27 at 5 p.m.  “This year our famous awards dinner is back on Saturday at 6 p.m.,” said Pete Kupper from Charlie’s, adding “unfortunately with going to a catch and release format we must sell tickets to help cover the cost of the food, this year we will be offering a chef prepared buffet.”

The fishing boundaries are from the south jetty of the Manasquan Inlet to the north jetty of Barnegat Inlet.  Tournament entry fee is $40, and awards dinner tickets are $15 per person limit (two tickets per entry of the tournament.)
