fishing tournament

When the Fall arrives the Interrupted Outdoors kicks into high gear. Many of you know the incredible opportunities the Eastern Shore of Maryland and Virginia have to offer when it comes to hunting and fishing.  People come from around the country to experience all the Eastern Shore has to offer.  There are many household names like the White Marlin Open but a fishing Tournament that is quickly becoming a mainstay here on the shore and garnering a ton of attention is the Tangier Classic. The Tangier Classic is in its fourth year and is continuing to explode in popularity with Anglers.  The multi-species Chesapeake Bay fishing tournament is one of the finest there is and is scheduled for September 23-25, 2022. Whether you are an angler or just someone looking for a great family friendly activity, be sure to make your way to Crisfield, Maryland on this third week of September. 

 I welcome my friends Brad Taylor and Adam Corry who are part of the team that put this event on every year.  They tell us how the tournament came to be and how any person of an age and any experience level can get registered for the event and find success on the water.  The guys also share about how this year the tournament is raising money for a precious little girl who has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Lakelyn Draheim is a true warrior with a family that is fighting right alongside of her as she battles DIPG Grade 4 with H3K27M mutation. Be sure to check out her story and take an opportunity to donate to this beautiful family.

Brad Taylor and David Hooker join Steve Hallman for a conversation about the origins of the tournament and the "Why" behind it.  A portion of this years proceeds will go to the Drollette family to help with medical expensiveness for their youngest son Owen. Owen Drollette, was born on October 23rd, 2020. The family knew long before his birth that he would be a heart warrior. At twenty weeks pregnant, Owen's parents learned that Owen has several congenital heart defects, Heterotaxy, which means some of his organs are in the wrong place or shifted, and Polysplenia, which means he has multiple spleens.  Owen is nearly one year old and fighting hard everyday.
