The team that weighs-in the largest fish in one of the New Brunswick Sportfishing Association regular season tournaments (7) will take home a prize package worth over $1,850. That’s above and beyond the money won at the individual tournament. That will make that one fish worth well over $2,000! Nice pay day for one fish.

The Magaguadavic Lake tournament on July 17th the brother’s team of Ronnie & Robbie Hooper took home the Lunker cheque weighing in a very nice Smallie at 3.50 pounds and helped propel them to a 4th place finish in the event. However, the Hooper & Hooper 3.50-pound Lunker could not unseat the 4.20-pound Lunker previously caught by the Team of Wilf Edmond & Mike Rickett at the Nackawic Tournament of May 22nd & 23rd.

The next New Brunswick Sportfishing Association Tournament will be held July 31st & August 1st on the Saint John River out of Carleton Park in Fredericton. This event is sponsored by the City of Fredericton (https://www.fredericton.ca/en/recreation) and is known as the Annual Dennis Wilson Memorial Tournament after the long-time angler, supporter and benefactor of the Association.
