THIS IS A “JUST FOR FUN” BENEFIT TOURNAMENT: Thanks for your interest and support! The

purposes of this event is to benefit Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, raise awareness of the recreational

opportunities on the Tallapoosa, highlight the beauty of the Tallapoosa River and its bass species, meet new

friends, and have fun fishing. While there will be prizes awarded, this is not a professional fishing

tournament and therefore shouldn’t be treated as such.

species. All fish are caught, then photographed according to the rules and released immediately back to the

river. Participants provide the “total length” of their 3 best fish upon arrival at Jaybird. If the length qualifies

for a prize, participants must provide photos for verification. Photos must be taken according to guidelines

below. Prizes are awarded – but most importantly, everyone has a lot of fun!
