July 11, 2020 we ran our first Hooked on Hope fishing trip. For the past 7 years we have been taking pediatric cancer families out fishing for a day to take their minds off the troubles on land and enjoy the water and catch a few fish. Later in 2020, Angela relapsed and we unfortunately lost her in 2022 to cancer. Every year since 2021 we have fished this tournament and dedicate it to her to remember her strength, resilience, fire and determination. Angela was a competitor and we have always wanted to win this tournament for her, and yesterday we finally did! Coming out of the inlet yesterday I had no idea where we were going to fish and something just guided me to the area we fished all day. I told everyone I just followed boat 71 around with our angel anglers on it where Angela was the captain! Yesterday was more than fishing, the tournament had a record 82 boats and 16 pediatric cancer families were able to fish yesterday! Next year’s goal is 100 boats! It’s always great to see the fishing community come together to support this great cause. A HUGE shoutout to Mike Robey for all he does for HOH. This dude has became family and we love ya brother for all you do for us, the kids and the community. Also, big thanks to our team who has fished this tournament together every year, always a good time with laughs, arguments, and blaming each other for all the tangled lines! Finally, we crested the AES Cancer Foundation to specifically help blood cancer families and we will be donating a portion of our winnings to the foundation.
