Anheuser-Busch® and the Parks and Wildlife Foundation of Texas are looking for tough anglers to participate in the Gulf Coast Roundup.

The Texas Gulf Coast Roundup was established as an opportunity for anglers to get together, cast a few lines, show off their skills and swap a few stories – all while helping improve saltwater sportfishing in Texas.

It’s simple. Anglers try to reel in specific saltwater fish at certain sizes to earn points. The top five anglers, one from each event, will win great prizes and have their names proudly displayed at Sea Center Texas in Lake Jackson.

Participants will vie for great prizes. Category winners will receive a Shiman Curado reel and event winners will receive an All Star Rod equipped with a Calcutta 250 reel. One tough Angler will receive a Lifetime Fishing License for being the overall point winner from all five events. All this fun and competition is for a reason.

By contributing a portion of their catch to Texas Parks and Wildlife, anglers will support and encourage fishery conservation, management, education and research in Texas. So grab your gear. It’s free and it’s for sportfishing in Texas. For more information on the Texas Gulf Coast Roundup, call (800) 792-1112 and press “4."
