Inshore Tournament Trail

QUICK FACTS

One Division: Flounder
No Entry Fee: Automatically entered in Inshore Trail if you fish any of the five Inshore Challenge events (no separate entry fee)
One Flounder Per Event: One flounder per event qualifies for Inshore Trail standings
Points: Point system is based on weight of fish in hundredths (ex. 7.65 lb. fish equals 7.65 points)
Heaviest Three-Flounder Total Wins: Heaviest weight total of up to three  flounder comprises Flounder Champions
No Minimum Entry: Don’t have to fish all five events. Entering only one event automatically qualifies you for Inshore Trail money and prizes. Weigh in one flounder per event, and your goal is three heavy flounder.
Guaranteed Payouts: Guaranteed $1000–1st, as well as a host of leaderboard prizes (this Inshore Tournament Trail prize money is in addition to any prize money won in each of the individual events)
Family Friendly Rules: As many anglers on boat as you like, can use live or dead bait, fish don’t have to be weighed in alive (check each tournament’s rules for a more complete listing)
