The First Annual All Scholastic Striped Bass Charity Tournament between St. John's Prep and Central Catholic High School turned out to be a draw after both schools failed to land a fish during competition. Still, it turned out to be a great experience as both schools enjoyed time on Park River Refuge section of Plum Island.
SJP was represented by 9 students and 3 faculty members (Mr. Boyle, Mr. Soule, and myself). Even though we had successfully pre-fished some spots and we had several days of solid reports, the fish were nowhere to be found.
Since there was no clear winner, each school will make a donation to the charity of their choice (We will be making a donation to My Brother's Table). At the end of the day it was a great experience and it will be the foundation for future events between the two fishing clubs.
