Emerald Isle Fall Fishing Tournament

About EIFishingTournament

Mission Statement

"The mission of the Emerald Isle Fishing Tournament is to foster community engagement, environmental stewardship, and educational advancement.

Established in FY 18/19 with the inaugural tournament in September 2019, our primary goal is to organize a premier fishing event while channeling its proceeds towards benevolent endeavors.

Revenue generated from the tournament is dedicated to funding essential tournament expenditures, with surplus proceeds directed toward supporting local scholarships for high school students, facilitating the dredging of Emerald Isle waterways, and championing various community-related projects of merit.

By blending the excitement of sport with the spirit of giving back, we aim to enhance the quality of life for residents while preserving the natural beauty of our beloved Emerald Isle."

This year the Emerald Isle Fishing Tournament Committee awarded a total of six scholarships to students from Swansboro High School and from East and West Carteret High Schools.

The scholarship recipients were Nathan Priechenfried from Hubert, Dayan Trejo-Martinez from Newport, Jackson Sproul from Morehead City, Walton C Guthrie from Beaufort, Wyatt S Nowacek from Beaufort and Alisha D Tosto from Beaufort.

We would also like to express our gratitude to all participants who took part in the event. Your enthusiasm and sportsmanship made the tournament a huge success, and we appreciate your contribution to our vibrant fishing community.

A special thank you goes out to our generous sponsors for providing the scholarship funds. Your support and commitment to our youth are invaluable, and we are grateful for the opportunities you have created. We are proud of your accomplishments and wish you continued success in your future academic pursuits!
