Tournaments

It’s almost time for the fall tournaments. Join us for two of the Gulf Coast’s best surf fishing events: The Upper Limit, running October 30 through November 29, and the Panhandle Salt Pompano Showdown, happening November 20, 21, and 22. The Upper Limit gives anglers a full month to compete, while the Showdown brings everyone together for a weekend of surf fishing, weigh-ins, and Gulf Coast tournament action. The Upper Limit will run straight through the Fall Pompano Showdown, giving anglers the chance to compete in both events at the same time. Two tournaments. One month. Anglers are encouraged to fish both events. One fish could help you climb two leaderboards.

For Local Anglers: If you are local, you can fish both tournaments and weigh the same fish for both leaderboards. One fish could help you in two different events.

For Out-of-Town Anglers: If you are traveling in for the Showdown, this is your chance to jump into The Upper Limit too. Even though The Upper Limit runs for a full month, a few solid days on the sand can still put you in the mix. You never know what kind of weight you can put on the board during a good fall bite.
