The Second Annual Legends of the Fly Tournament

In October of 2017, we held our second annual Legends of the Fly charity slam tournament to benefit Project Healing Waters.  Building on the previous year’s success, we registered 28 teams ( 5 youth and 23 adult) with anglers fishing from paddleboards, kayaks, and motorcraft.   We also had 7 PHW veterans participate as well as  3 college teams representing James Madison University, Virginia Tech, and Hampton-Sydney College.  With a date later in October, we swapped stripers for flounder to make the slam and five teams were able to catch a striper, speckled trout, and redfish.  We had a great after-party and the raffles raised $6,800 for Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing.
