“The STAR Tournament allows every registered member a legitimate chance to win,” said Scott Whitaker, CCA SC executive director. “We release the tagged redfish with the hopes they will be caught each year and we look forward to seeing and hearing about the great stories that accompany the
dolphin catches throughout the season”.

The STAR Tournament brings together anglers of all experience levels with the idea of recruiting new and returning anglers of all ages into conservation and marine stewardship. Fish over 100 days this summer, both inshore and offshore, with only one entry fee that is less than a tank of fuel.

“CCA SC’s 30 plus year tradition in conservation is anchored in passion for the resource and a growing group of active supporters for marine resource advocacy, habitat, sound science and angler education,” said CCA STAR Co-Chairman Keith Brown. “It’s one more reason to go fishing and to join CCA SC and our conservation mission along the way.”

CCA SC has been instrumental in oyster recycling and oyster reef restoration, creating & establishing near-shore and off-shore artificial reefs, implementing critical fisheries conservation measures, and funding much needed scientific research for the improvement of the Palmetto State’s marine resources and improving recreational saltwater angling.
