~~About This Division:
Welcome to the Maryland division! Come try tournament fishing at a different level. We offer team events in a friendly competitive atmosphere. Sharing Christ through tournament fishing is our passion. We host a Friday night meeting prior to our tournaments with a meal provided. Families are welcome and encoraged. Our program begins with registration at 5:30 p.m. followed by a free dinner and an inspirational speaker and ends with door prizes. Come check us out!
We offer 5 tournaments on waters in the state. The top 80% of division teams advance to District Events. The top 20% of District teams advance to a National Championship. You must fish at least 3 divisional events to qualify for the top 80%. If you fish 5 divisional events you can qualify to fish any and/or all district events.
