The pier at Anclote Gulf Park in Holiday got a little action as youngsters reeled em’ in at the 30th annual Fishing tournament held Feb. 27 under a bright sunny sky.

The event was sponsored by  J. Ben Harrill Recreation Complex and Pasco County Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources and VFW Post 10167 in Holiday.

Awards were given for longest fish and most fish caught with trophies and awards handed out to the winners.

Seems like a good time was had by all. 🙂
