G Gathering Mid-Atlantic Rockfish Shootout

Mid-Atlantic Rockfish Shootout



The 5th Annual Shootout has grown from 75 boats to nearly 300 boats in just three years. Local fisherman Mike Standing's love of fishing has created the largest rockfish tournament in the country, with over $20,000 being donated back to the community.

Some of the recipients include The Southeastern Food Bank, Hooked On Fishing Not On Drugs, and the Casey Neal Rogers Scholarship fund.


Connor & Carson McNulty from Salt Marsh Point in Virginia Beach came out.

Barclay and Gaston Shepard sized up the fish from the big event.

Michael Gingell of Rudee Inlet and Saran Mallette from the Eastern Shore stopped for a photo.

We even caught Jeff Smith and Sam Cahill catching some surf as the boats returned from fishing.
