• Wednesday, October 22nd - Saturday, October 25th

Registration is currently open for the Annual North Carolina Beach Buggy Association’s (NCBBA) Red Drum Tournament. The tournament features more than $10,000 in cash and prizes up for grabs.

The tournament offers miles of naturally isolated fishing grounds along the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, allowing anglers to maintain social distance while enjoying the exceptional fall fishing conditions of the Outer Banks. Anglers fish from ORV Ramp 23 to Ramp 38, and possibly Ramps 43 and 44 if judge availability permits. Anglers may fish where they please within the tournament boundaries, as there are no station assignments during the 60 hours of wide-open fishing. This year’s banquet and awards ceremony may be subject to restrictions by state or local authorities in regard to group gatherings, depending on the state of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Interested anglers can sign up as individuals or teams online at https://www.ncbba.org/. The entry fee includes a tournament T-shirt, a hat and other goodies. The tournament is open to approximately 600 anglers, both individual and teams of 3-6, and participants are encouraged to sign up early to ensure their space is available.
