HYANNIS – Over $207,000 was recently raised at The Third Annual Little Big Fishing Tournament to support Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cape Cod and the Islands.
The tournament brought over 36 local fishing boats and 144 anglers to Hyannis Harbor, with lines cast at 6 am and weigh-in held from 2 to 4 pm.
Following the on-water portion of the event, an award ceremony was held at Baxter’s Boathouse with raffle prizes, a live auction, and awards for the adult and junior anglers who caught the biggest striped bass and bluefish.
Dinner at the event was provided by Baxter’s Fish ‘N Chips.
Proceeds raised by the tournament will help Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cape Cod and the Islands in their mission to provide mentorship and assistance to at-risk children in the region and promote brighter futures for the youth of Cape Cod.
“Since its inception in 2021, the tournament has raised over $452,000 for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cape Cod and the Islands,” said E.J. Jaxtimer in a statement regarding the event.
