“There are three events in the SKA’s Division 11,” said Operations Manager Robert Flocken. “Anglers join the SKA and fish its three events in the Division for two reasons.

All boats fishing the event that are classified as 23 feet or less by SKA rules will be competing for $2,000. They are still entitled to win the overall prizes.
