And the "Flounder Revolution Angler of the Year" is...
Greetings fellow flounder fanatics!

The 2011 Flounder Revolution (R) Angler of the Year is Justin Hawkins.
After catching, photographing and releasing the most Sabine area fish ever entered into competition he ended up with a tally of 635.5 inches.

Hawkins will receive a trophy as well as a flounder tackle package worth $1,000. He now joins Chris Dial and Jantzen Miller our 2009 and 2010 winners as unique representatives of flounder fishing who have helped step things up for conservation.
Both of our former winners were competitive his year and deserve kudos just as Case Williams, Justin Pelton, Mike Bishop and Chester Moore, Sr. do for submitting fish.
Once again this year many anglers reported releasing fish that were not quite 20 inches to help with conservation efforts, showing the Flounder Revolution (R) has taken hold in the hearts and minds of many anglers on the Texas and Louisiana coasts.
Look for an even bigger year for this project in 2012. The Coastal Conservation Association has once again signed on to sponsor the replica program and Costa will provide a pair of their premium sunglasses for all anglers who earn a replica fish.
Upgrade is in the air!
God bless,
Chester Moore
