NESS’s 8th Annual Francis Pandolfi Fishing Tournament reeled in an impressive 55 anglers on Saturday, August 9th. It was a beautiful day on the water, with plenty of porgy caught and a variety of other fun and unique catches adding to the excitement.
The top two overall winners were among our youngest competitors: 4-year-old Hayden H., with a 15¼" porgy, and 5-year-old Oakley B., with a 15⅛" porgy, each earning a private fishing charter (courtesy of Captain Seth Sportfishing and Full Circle Charters)!
Congratulations to all our anglers for their skill, sportsmanship, and memorable catches — every participant made this year’s tournament one to remember!
