Looking to ‘reel in’ more attendees and fundraising dollars at your next big fishing tournament?  Then be sure to take notes from this Washington agency that teamed up with a local fishing tournament to hold a tagged fishing promotion worth the big bucks!

Here’s how the promotion worked: Anglers that day were on the lookout for one of five tagged fish (Triploid Rainbow Trout, to be exact) which were placed in the reservoir that day.  Each tagged rainbow trout contained a unique number.  If an angler managed to catch one of the tagged fish, they would call Odds On Promotions’ phone verification hotline and input the number on the tag to see what prize they’ve won!

Four of the tagged fish were worth a $500 cash prize while one lucky rainbow trout was worth a brand new boat valued at $40,000!

While unfortunately, no one managed to catch the lucky grand prize tagged fish, there’s still a happy ending to this promotion: all of the money that was fundraised that day went toward a great cause – restocking the reservoir with all new Triploid Rainbow Trout!
