IWFA 2018 Louisiana Slam Tournament

Group Photo

The 24 ladies fishing the Louisiana Slam tournament had a fabulous three days of fishing! The number of bull Redfish (over 27") released was a whopping 784...on 10 lb test!! The numbers for Redfish 16" - 27" and Redfish under 16" were 625 and 347, respectively. The number of trout released was 17, making the total number of fish 1,773! Be mindful, that this total doesn't include the fish that were released but exceeded the scoring limit, were caught on bait and later upgraded to artificial (to increase the anglers score) or qualifying IWFA species that weren't part of the tournament. Congratulations to all who fished and, especially, to those who won awards:
