Queen of Kings -- Back on

JoeZ · 09-08-2010, 09:46 PM

I really didn't think we were going to able to pull this off this year.

Luckily, I was wrong. Brad Sauers (Tide in Knots) hooked me a up with a shot at a sponsor and ... we're back on thanks to McGraw Insurance and Nationwide.

Nothing changed but the date. Still ladies, still king mackerel. Still $2,000 guaranteed.

I'll have posters and registration forms out to all the b&ts and most other places as soon as the ink dries.

------------------------------------------

Nothing ever goes as planned and this year's Queen of Kings is no exception. After a few months delay and a lot of worry over whether it would happen this year or not, we are proud to announce the McGraw Insurance Services Queen of Kings Ladies King Mackerel Tournament presented by Nationwide.
The captain and anglers meeting will be at Paradise Bar & Grill on Pensacola Beach September 24 at 6:30 p.m. with a mandatory sign out. Scales will be open Saturday September 25 from 5 to 7 p.m. also at Paradise.

There is no late registration fee so you can show up at Paradise this Friday and sign up for the same $150.

Should be a decent weekend for it.

Looks like a great weather report for it.....1-2 feet!

Captain Jake Adams · 09-22-2010, 05:55 PM

I think this is going to be a great tournament and would love to fish it. My wife had unfortunately made plans for us this weekend that I can't get out of. Hopefully it will be a success and I can't wait to fish it next year.
