The excitement strikes again
July 9th - July 13th, 2008
For twenty-four years, the Bay Point Invitational Billfish Tournament has been the highlight of the second week in July on Panama City Beach. Long referred to as Bay County's Party of the Year, the Invitational has also established itself as the premier sporting event on the Gulf of Mexico and home to the first and second largest Blue Marlin ever weighed in the state of Florida.
This year total prize money is once again expected to exceed $1 million. There will be crowds and parties, the presentation of the colors, bands and singers, exhibits, a golf tournament, fireworks and awards. In short, a great tradition will be continued.
For more information, please visit the official Bay Point Invitational Billfish Tournament website.
