What a day! The second leg of the Cape Lookout Shootout Tournament Series started out with the new Contender 35ST getting us to Avon in splendid fashion. It finished with a 17 pound king mackerel and a looong rough ride home! We are very pleased with how the new boat handled the rough conditions, but disappointed in our performance in the cockpit. We'll get it figured out and hope to do so before the next tournament.
Congratulations to Phillip Munden and the Gone Again team on their win, and congratulations to all teams that were able to weigh fish yesterday!
See you all at the next one!

It was a good day!!!

It didn't start as planned, but it turned out to be a good day! Otters ate our bluefish just two days before the tournament.
The new boat hasn't gotten here yet, but Trey and Leah put their 28 Contender in for the day.
We headed across the shoals and found a king mackerel at about 11:00. Problem was a shark found her too. We only got a head back.
We stayed after it and at about 3:30 we were rewarded for persistence. This time the sharks left us alone and we got her in the boat!
37.53 pounds was good to earn a fourth place finish for the King's Ransom Fishing Team in the first leg of the Cape Lookout Shootout North Division!!! Leah earned second place lady angler and Ron and Matt got second place senior anglers!
Congratulations to everyone that weighed fish, with a special congratulations to Mark Henderson and the crew of the Liquid Fire Fishing Team!!! Great job guys!

It was a really good day!!!

Well I am way late in posting this and I guess technically it was not on the King’s Ransom but I am going to do it anyway 😁. We had a great couple of days fishing on the Grade A. Caught triggers, bee liners, gag groupers and more red snapper than I can count the first day. They were all released to fight another day. Hopefully we can get this lawsuit settled and go catch and keep some of these Red Devils soon. The next fishing day we got to go have a great time catching gaffer dolphin! It has been a long time since we saw gaffer fishing like this! Didn’t get many pictures for the bottom fishing.

We had a great day in the Cape Lookout Shootout Tournament yesterday! We caught fish, and had fun. We just need bigger ones next time. Congratulations to all that got a payout yesterday. Special congratulations to David Chavis and Chad "Cape Shootout" Shingleton and the crew of Tide One On for their big win!

Sorry for no posts lately I am not but about 6 months late in updating the fall tournaments for us. It was a tough year as we did not qualify for the championship in the Cape Lookout Shootout but did have one great event for us. Finished 2nd in the Morehead City Open event. Dad, Tammy and Jonathan Care along with Rebecca and I were the team! Tammy and Rebecca caught all the fish and finished first place lady anglers. Dad pulled out first place senior angler. We had 2 great fish with a 42lb fish the first day and a 44 the second day. We were also fishing in yhe NC Troopers Association tournament and had designated the first day as our fishing day so we finished 7th there!! It was a great weekend!!

What a wonderful family fishing day we had for the 4th! Rebecca and Ellen Dorsey each had NC citation triggers. Didn’t get a picture of the old man, but dad was doing work too!! I am so very fortunate to get to do this! Blessed beyond belief!

Finished out the tournament year with the championship of the Cape Lookout Shootout Tournament Series. Didn’t finish the position we wanted but team had a good day with a 49 lb fish for 4th place big fish but this was a 2 fish aggregate tournament and could only find an 18lber to go with it. Ended up in 17th overall but still got a check!! Also very proud that Dad won 3rd place for senior angler for the year!! At 84 years young he keeps on being an integral part of the team. Rebecca and I were not able to fish the championship day but had Leah and Trey Grady fish. They are always welcome on the boat and we are so thankful to have them as friends.

Overall we had a very good tournament year with getting a check in each tournament. Now it is time to put stuff back together along with chasing some trout and bottom fish!!
