On behalf of the European Federation of Sea Anglers (EFSA) I would like to thank you all for agreeing with the decision to postpone the European Championship Big Game Fishing/PENN Challenge to next year. The decision is a hard one but a fair one. Given the fact that at least 20 anglers can’t attend the tournament and many others have doubts about travelling to Cape Verde. So thank you all!
After reviewing the calendar and trying to avoid conflicts with already made bookings in May 2022 we set the new tournament dates to the Monday 25th, Tuesday 26th, Wednesday 27th and Thursday 28th of April 2022. Most of teams will arrive a few days earlier to practice fishing. So additional bookings are possible.
We hope you all can cope with these dates and, if necessary, try to reschedule already made bookings.
EFSA EU Big Game Tournament 2022: 25, 26, 27, 28th of April !!
As mentioned before, we pointed out to our participants that those we can travel and like to fish. Book a boat a go to Mindelo!!
We will also promote fishing for marlin in Sao Vicente through our Facebook page and through Inst posts.
If you post availability of your boat on Facebook I will share these posts on our PENN Challenge page (2.500 followers worldwide).
We will keep you posted. Got any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards,
A.F.N. (Toine) van Ierland
