A small blue won the tourney. 20" I heard. Fishing wasn't that great. Guys who stayed home didn't miss much. Still a good day to get out and support a good cause.

Hey cool and thanks for the update fishinmission. At least the weather wasn't that bad for the kids. Maybe they should move the time to later in the month next year?

Ristori posted the results -
Sunday's Governor's Surf Fishing Tournament drew over 700 anglers to Island Beach State Park, but there were only 67 fish entered. Mike Nightingale of East Windsor beached a 33 5/8-inch striper to win the Governor's Cup, edging Patrick Mickles of Maple Shade with a 32 1/4-incher. Those were the only two large fish, but some blues, kingfish and blackfish were caught for prizes in various divisions. Joe Csenteri of Columbus. Pa. had the largest blue at 23 1/8 inches.
