Safe Daylight - 3pm
$100 per boat, optional $10 big bass pot
5 fish limit, 12' minimum
All proceeeds will benefit Damani's family to help with medical expenses
The following was written by his mother:
I was born at 27 weeks weighting 1 pound and 11 ounces. I have faced many complications due to my prematurity. At birth, I was diagnosed with a grade 3 intra-ventricular hemorrhage which caused swelling in my brain. At a month old, I developed necrotizing enter colitis, which is a medical condition where a portion of the bowel undergoes tissue death. After multiple IV antibiotics and blood transfusions, my intestines were narrowed to block the blood flow. I had bowel surgery and had to have an ostomy placed to allow my bowels to heal. I now weigh 4 pounds and I'm steadily growing.
50% PAYOUT, 1ST - 5TH PAID
There will also be items up for auction including sports memorabilia, charter fishing trips, custom fishing rods, etc.
Please call me or email me with any questions or to sign up! Thanks in advance for the support on this guys, my first time doing something like this. Just trying to help them out the best way I know how.

Great
Truly a great thing you are doing for this child and his family. I won't be able to attend, unfortunately. But I'd be more than happy to pay for a guided fishing trip, with the proceeds going to the family. Just let me know if I can help in any way.
Thanks,
Dusty

Raffle
Guys we've gotten our list of items to be raffled off and it is rather impressive. Inshore trips, custom rods, LSU memorabilia, Saints tickets, and a guided duck hunt in Buras, LA, with Jim Bob Allgood and his Redneck Adventures television show. Come out and fish this great event and win one of these great prizes!

Getting close
We're less than two weeks away guys. Anybody interested in fishing this tournament and supporting this brave young man, let me know.
Update on his status, he's at 7.5 lbs. now, taking 4 bottles a day, had his colostomy bag removed, and hoping to get him home soon!
