Operating out of the Lorelei Restaurant and Cabana Bar, this popular Florida Keys fishing tournament is not just fun but has a flavor all it’s own. In some ways, it’s sort of like the TV show ‘Cheers’ and the ongoing competition they had with their rival Boston bar.
This boat tournament involves actively employed bartenders. A local favorite, this hilarious, fun and competitive event offers trophy awards and bragging rights to winning bars.
