On September 28th, New England BHA attended StiperFest and was represented by Aaron Townsley and Jen True from the Massachusetts Team and talked with hundreds of folks about BHA's conservation work with striped bass and maintaining coastal access for the public.
StriperFest is held by On the Water in Falmouth, Cape Cod. It starts out as a catch and release striper contest every year called the Striper Cup. Anglers pay an entrance fee to the Striper Cup and throughout the season there is a weekly photo contest with prizes. It culminates in StriperFest where all Striper Cup entrants that are physically present have a chance to win a center console boat.
It was a great time! See you there next year.
