The Manhattan Cup Tournament is an annual fishing event sponsored by the Fishermen's Conservation Association that brings together top anglers to compete in catching striped bass and bluefish. It supports conservation efforts and charitable causes like Wounded Warriors.
The tournament features captains Andy LoCascio and Rich Tenreiro, along with anglers Peter Bordes, Mitch Wergiles, and mate Kyle Ondrey. They compete alongside a highly skilled field of participants.
In this tournament, the team takes a long run to Jamaica Bay where they fish for keeper striped bass and monster bluefish. The event also includes a notable shotgun start in the Hudson River.
The tournament supports the Fishermen's Conservation Association, which promotes fishing conservation, and Wounded Warriors, a charity dedicated to helping injured veterans. The event raises awareness and funds for these causes.
