The Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo recently announced that a limited number of Red Snapper tags were issued for the 79th Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo. Only 200 tags were available and selected on a lottery basis. The 200 anglers that were selected will be contacted by Rodeo officials. While Red Snapper will not be a category in the Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo, a random drawing for $500 will be held for all anglers with a special Rodeo Red Snapper tag that enter a Red snapper at the 79th Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo.
Anglers who receive a Special Red Snapper Tag will be required to pick up the tag at the July 19th Liar’s Contest starting at 6pm. Proof of purchase of an ADSFR Rodeo ticket and a valid ID must be provided to claim a Red Snapper Tag. The Liar’s Contest will be held at 6:30pm followed by live music with Ryan Balthrop and Friends.
