On September 24-26 the Tangier Classic fishing tournament will welcome anglers from all over the Mid-Atlantic region for some of the finest fishing that fishing tournaments can offer. Based out of Crisfield, Maryland tournament goers will fish the Chesapeake Bay and partake in a plethora of family fun actives on the shores of Crisfield, Maryland.
Brad Taylor and David Hooker join Steve Hallman for a conversation about the origins of the tournament and the "Why" behind it. A portion of this years proceeds will go to the Drollette family to help with medical expensiveness for their youngest son Owen. Owen Drollette, was born on October 23rd, 2020. The family knew long before his birth that he would be a heart warrior. At twenty weeks pregnant, Owen's parents learned that Owen has several congenital heart defects, Heterotaxy, which means some of his organs are in the wrong place or shifted, and Polysplenia, which means he has multiple spleens. Owen is nearly one year old and fighting hard everyday.
