A couple of months ago, TKF-San Antonio Chapter (www.texaskayakfisherman.com) put on a tourney. $20 entry fee and 50% of the entry fee went to the Texas School for the blind with the rest of the money being paid out to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place Redfish and Largemouth Bass. The tourney was held at Lake Braunig in San Antonio. I did the cooking with all the meat being donated by folks entered into the tourney.
The tourney was a smach hit. I don't know the final count but we had at least 30 anglers entered a couple of days before the tourney.
You can't go wrong with a tourney for charity. Half the money going to charity and the rest going to the winning fish is a good way to get folks involved. We had tons of food and great fun.
