Grouper Smackdown - Charity Event
Calling all free divers for the last month of grouper season. I started a little tournament, similar to the lengthy smackdowns they do in Cali. $20 entry for a chance to win half of the entry fees for the biggest grouper posted. I don't know if this board likes redirect links but the smackdown page is on Facebook... here. A good buddy of mine, Frankie Gutierrez, is 30 years old and was just this year diagnosed with Acute Lympholastic Leukemia. I am doing this tournament to help him raise a few dollars. Compared to the huge events others have made for him, this doesn't compare. But Frankie is a great free diver and spear fisherman. This means a lot to him. I'll announce the winner at the 2016 Key West Wahoo Shootout. The winner will receive half the money and Frankie will receive the other half. Thank you for everyone for your support. Please enter, shoot a grouper, post it. __________________________________________________ ___ Just to sum this thing up... Anyone on earth can enter. Freedive Spearfishing for black and gag grouper from the state of Florida. You must enter before you shoot your fish. You must take a photo of the fish on a digital scale. The picture with a description must be posted on this Facebook page. If someone enters who doesn't have Facebook a friend can post for them. The Smackdown ends the last day of this year. 50% of all money goes to the winner. The other 50% goes to Frankie. For those who don't know what Frankie is going through I'll post it tomorrow. We greatly appreciate everyone who enters!!! |

Both black and gag will count.

Re: Grouper Smackdown - Charity Event
Sounds like a good idea for a good cause. Hopefully it'll be calm for the last few days of the season when I'm down.
