Over $2000 in prizes to be awarded
The 27th “Brutus” Fluke Tournament will take place this year on Saturday, May 31, 2025, from 6:00 am till 3:00 pm. This tournament, initiated in 1999 to honor the memory of avid Bay Fisherman, Walter “the Brute” Gregory, Sr., has become a yearly tradition for anglers of all ages hoping to catch the big one!
Egg Harbor Township Elks Lodge 2563 and Somers Point AMVETS Post 911 are again combining their efforts. The tournament proceeds support their veterans and handicapped children’s charities. The entry fee is $50.00 per angler and fishing may be done from boat, pier, or beach. This year’s Brutus Tournament will feature $2050 in cash prizes ($1000 for 1st) as well as twelve valuable non-cash prizes. Two additional categories are – the heaviest Striper & Heaviest 3 Perch (both $100 prize). The Somers Point head boat “Duke O’Fluke – 609-742-9660)” will be offering a morning trip that day returning to dock well before the weigh-in cut off time.
The deadline for registration will be at the end of the 6:00pm Captains meeting held on Friday, May 30, (approx. 9pm). Registration will include free snacks during registration and a free Awards Buffet after the tournament. All events and the weigh-in will be held at the Egg Harbor Twp. Elks Lodge, 1815 Somers Pt.-Mays Landing Rd, just over the Patcong Creek Bridge in EHT.
