Want to participate in the PropTalk Fishing Challenge? Awesome. Here's what you do:

  1. Go fishing.
  2. Catch fish.
  3. Take a picture of yourself with said fish
  4. Email it to [email protected] and let us know you're in the Club.
  5. Click over to proptalk.com/hookups to see who's catching what where.
  6. Win cool stuff from our advertisers.
  7. Have a party with a bunch of other anglers at the end of the year.
Everyone will get to party, but we will have special prizes for the fisherman who catches the most species on the list, the angler who catches the most unusual fish, and the fisherman who travels the greatest distance to catch a fish. To encourage everyone to throw their catch back, we aren’t enforcing size limits. This isn’t a trophy hunt. This is all about seeing what the Bay has to offer…and then sending it back. Take only what you need.
