White Marlin Tournament Fast Approaching!

Ocean City is also known as the "White Marlin Capital of the World". August 3-7 will be fishing days for the White Marlin tournament. This is an offshore fishing tournament where sport fishing boats compete for prize money for White & Blue Marlin, tuna, and dolphin primarily. Last year's prize money was almost 2 million dollars with over 300 boats in the tournament. Probably one of the most spectacular sights, if you dont mind getting up at the crack of dawn, is going to the Ocean City inlet at about 4AM on the morning of one of the fishing days, and watch the boats parade out of the inlet. It is an awesome sight in those pre-dawn hours!
