The annual Red*Trout Celebrity Classic fishing tourney to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) kicks off at the Charleston Harbor Resort Pavilion with a catered supper and a fundraising affair. Celebrity anglers Blair Wiggins of
Addictive Fishing TV and Mark Nichols of
DOA Lures arrive each fall from Florida to donate their time and efforts to help drive this event towards continued success. Right off the bat a new tradition was instilled during the opening ceremony when the Memorial Rob Shore redfish trophy was awarded to local Capt. Champ Smith for his long-time support of this event - congrats! The two-man teams got together with their appointed fishing guides and mapped out their plan to fish with either spinning tackle or fly tackle during the two-day tourney. Then a large silent auction and live auction raised funds for CFF with fish prints, jewelry, flats blue rods and sporting trips to Savannah and Colorado. Lowcountry outdoors was glad to partner with
Guy Harvey Inc to donate a limited edition print to the auction, and the 2013 Red*Trout marks five years of blog coverage for this worthy cause.
