Mark your calendars today for one of Southwest Florida’s Best Fishing Tournaments the “Grouper Grapple” is arriving at Fish-Tale on August 12 and 13!
GOOD TIMES. GREAT CAUSES… AND GROUPER!
The Grouper Grapple was founded by Brian Peachey in 2013 as a means to give back to the community and show support to Combat Wounded Veterans that have served our country. The tournament itself started with just 16 boats in 2013, and has grown to 22 entries in 2014 and 35 entries in 2015.
By teaming with Freedom Alliance The Grouper Grapple has been able to turn the event into an actual vehicle that provides much needed therapy for combat wounded veterans returning from service.
The Grouper Grapple and Freedom Alliance provide the veterans with transportation to and from the event, hotel accommodations, breakfast, lunch and dinner Thursday – Sunday, Back Bay fishing trips, commemorative plaques, entry into the tournament and tournament events tournament, specialized apparel and a chance to join their brothers in arms in an atmosphere designed just for them!
Fish Tale Marina on Fort Myers Beach offers anglers a prime location and provides dock slips free of charge to all registered teams.
