South Florida PBA

Dolphin Shootout & Fishing Village

A thrilling day on the water for anglers and law enforcement supporters alike.

This is a Charity tournament where all proceeds benefit The Love Fund, supporting fallen officers and their families since 1984. The Love Fund is a charitable 501(c)(3) organization that fills a special need: it aids fallen officers and their families when no other funds are available to do so. Any money collected by the Love Fund helps pay for the funerals of officers killed in the line of duty, education for the children of fallen officers, and psychological counseling for officers and immediate family members impacted by the stress of the job. Whether you’re fishing offshore or enjoying the festivities on land, this event brings together South Florida’s law enforcement, boating, and fishing communities for a day of purpose and celebration.

About the Event

Join us for the South Florida’s PBA Dolphin Shootout, a saltwater Mahi fishing tournament paired with a family-friendly waterfront Fishing Village experience cohosted by On The Water Daily. The fishing village is designed to be a place for family and friends to spend the day and watch the anglers bring in their Mahi’s to be weighed.

This one-day offshore tournament is open to PBA members, supporters, and community anglers. Boats may depart from any port, with the official weigh-in taking place on-stage at Homestead Bayfront Park between 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM. Awards will be presented on the main stage at 5:00 PM.
