Annual Alice Kelly Memorial Ladies Only Billfish Tournament

The ladies are given a chance to show their fishing skills in this tournament held at the Pirate Cove Marina. This tournament has been a tradition on the Outer Banks for more than 30 years, and is one of the most famous offshore fishing tournaments where only the ladies are allowed to compete. Alice Kelly Memorial Tournament allows the ladies to shine while enjoying a full session of fishing along the North Carolina coastline.

The event launches from the famed Pirate’s Cove Marina, and during the multiple-day event, anglers will head out to the offshore waters of the Gulf Stream to target the big catches that the Outer Banks is known for. Teams compete every year in a variety of categories, with lots of big cash prizes waiting for the winners at the docks. At the end of each day, anglers can kick off the boat shoes and relax at Pirate’s Cove, while toasting another day of fishing and gearing up for the next day’s adventures.
