Tarpon Rodeo

June 12th, 2026

It’s your turn to bring home the trophy. Are you ready to join the hunt for the Silver King?

The Tarpon Rodeo is our annual all catch-and-release tournament on Tampa Bay to benefit our restoration projects and education programs. Anglers will compete in a half-day tournament. Fish are logged in by the boat captain or a team representative on the event app, iAngler, and judged by a professional app representative.

Join us on Friday, June 12, 2026 for the Tampa Bay Watch Tarpon Rodeo, honoring TBW Founding Board Member Ed Alber!
