There is still time to be part of the 38th Annual Tampa Digital Photo All-Release Challenge! Join us at the beautiful Tampa Bay Watch for an unforgettable event, proudly sponsored by T.A. Mahoney Co. and held in loving memory of Captain Richard Seward. Tickets and sponsorship opportunities are still available — secure your spot today and be part of an incredible event supporting our coastal conservation efforts.
The event features multiple divisions, including Artificial, Live Bait, Non-Motor, and Youth categories, with eligible species including redfish, snook, and trout. Participants will enjoy a weekend of competition, camaraderie, and awards while celebrating our shared passion for conservation and the outdoors.
The tournament also offers valuable sponsorship opportunities, including Slam Sponsor and Snook Sponsor packages that provide guided fishing experiences, tournament recognition, memberships, and promotional branding. Slam and Snook Sponsors will receive an unforgettable guided fishing experience and will meet their assigned captain before departing from Fort De Soto the morning of the tournament.
With scheduled events including raffles, awards, and angler gatherings, the tournament promises an exciting and professionally organized experience for anglers, sponsors, and supporters alike. Whether you're competing on the water or supporting the cause as a sponsor, this event offers a unique opportunity to be part of one of Tampa Bay's premier fishing experiences.
The Captain's Meeting will take place on Friday, September 25th, where anglers will receive their tournament measuring device and go over important tournament details. Anglers are encouraged to attend the meeting and enjoy a great meal with fellow participants. If you are unable to attend the Captain's Meeting on Friday evening, you will need to meet with tournament officials at Fort De Soto on Saturday morning prior to fishing to receive your measuring device and complete registration requirements.
Fishing will take place on Saturday, September 26th, with lunch provided for anglers following the tournament. Tournament Headquarters will be located at the Tampa Bay Watch Marine Center, 3000 Pinellas Bay Way, South Tierra Verde, FL 33715.
