Berkeley Striper Club Spring Tournament 5/30-- 6/8/08

The Berkeley Striper Club’s 5th Annual Spring Tournament will be held from 5/30 – 6/8. There will be over $6500. in prizes which includes cash and merchandise.

The tournament is for fishing from the shore only and the boundaries include all Ocean and MonmouthCounty waters that are open to the public.

There will be prizes awarded for the twelve largest striped bass, the twelve largest bluefish and the two largest weakfish.

The entrance fee is only $25. per person and those interested have until 9Pm on 5/30 to enter.

The tournament also features several optional calcuttas/pools. Those interested may register by mail by obtaining an application via www.berkeleystriperclub.org or by contacting the club’s tournament director, Paul Haertel at (973) 943-8201.

Those wishing to enter in person may do so at Bahr’s Landing, Barnegat Light B&T, Betty and Nick’s, the Dock Outfitters, Fisherman’s Headquarters, Fishermen’s Supply Company, Grumpys, Jersey Joe’s, L&H Woods and Water (Waretown), The Reel Seat, Scott’s, Surf City and Surf Side Bait and Tackle stores.

All profits will go to the club’s “Striped Bass Defense Fund”. In the past the primary beneficiary has been Stripers Forever, the internet group seeking to make striped bass a no sale or game fish along the entire east coast. Thus over $5000. to their organization. Lesser amounts have been donated to other organizations as well.
