Welcome Anglers!
I want to welcome all anglers and families to the 301stAnnual
Raleigh Saltwater Sport Fishing Club King Mackerel
Tournament.
This Year's
Junior Angler Awards
are Presented By
This year's KMT will offer many of the fun activities like we have
in the past. We will be holding the Cast net competition on
Friday night for one lucky youth and one adult. There will be
rafe opportunities, and much more.
The RSWSC has long promoted family shing. In conjunction
with those efforts, we will once again be hosting a Junior
Angler’s Competition. Be sure to attend the awards ceremony
on Saturday night to see who wins.
I'd like to ask everyone to remember, every entry made, Tshirt/rafe ticket purchased, or Sponsorship provided is
important. All of these will allow the RSWSC to once again
donate a portion of the proceeds from this tournament to TakeA-Kid Fishing, and the Dale Ward Marine Scholarship.
I'd like to personally thank

All our 2015 Sponsors for their generous support.

Morehead City for the use of its facilities and being a
welcoming Host.

All our members who give of their time to make this a Fun
