2020 S.C. Mahi Series Begins May 4

The S.C. Mahi Series is new for 2020,
aided by innovative rules

Brand new for 2020 is the S.C. Mahi Series, and it will likely be the first fishing tournament of the year due to their innovative format including a virtual Captain’s Meeting on May 2. The S.C. Mahi Series sets the tournament dates from May 4 – 30 and then tells fishing teams that they can pick any two days they want to go fishing, 

Offshore anglers are already willing to try for dolphin due to their high value as table fare, and for those with a competitive drive, they can now also compete for a cash prize. The entry fee for the S.C. Mahi Series is $350 and the heaviest two-fish aggregate weight will win the tournament. Teams can weigh two fish each day they fish, and the tournament will not count a team’s two smallest dolphin, and  will record the weights from a team’s heaviest two mahi. 

The online Captain’s Meeting on May 2 will be in lieu of the originally scheduled May 3 meeting at Hilton Head Harbor Marina. Despite missing out on the fellowship and meal that is usually a part of any Captain’s meeting, participants can still purchase a tourney t-shirt and get the positive feeling from group participation. Anglers can weigh-in their fish at three locations including Hilton Head, Toler’s Cove in Mount Pleasant and Georgetown Landing Marina. Pioneer Boats in Colleton County is a major sponsor of the S.C. Mahi Series, along with Tailwalker Marine and Black Dog Marine. Good Luck Fishing!
