## Resource

The Grand Isle Tarpon Rodeo, America’s oldest fishing tournament, kicked off amid stormy seas after being delayed by Tropical Storm Bertha—but anglers still flooded in for the action. Dating back to 1928, this Louisiana staple offers bragging rights, a $10K prize draw, and a major economic boost for the island. Families enjoyed live music, food, and thrilling catches—including a big cobia by Cole Hodges and his son—despite rough waters. Winners will be announced later today as the weekend winds down.
