At The Old Salt – Spring King of the Beach
This is a fun kids fishing tournament held in conjunction with the annual Old Salt Spring King of the Beach Kingfish Tournament. Kid will complete with 2 heats, 4 age groups and lots of prizes! The event is absolutely FREE! We do ask that everyone that wants to fish sign up online. The event is held at ROC Park in sunny Madeira Beach, FL. A generous product donation from the good folk at 13 Fishing allows Old Salt to provide kids fishing rods for the first 500 youth anglers on the field.
