Fish Against Addiction Speckled Trout Fishing Tournament is a nonprofit organization founded by the family and friends of Tyler Dees.

Not only is this tournament being held in Tyler's name, but in honor of those who have lost their battle with drugs/fentanyl toxicity and alcohol, those who are struggling with addiction and are in rehabilitation centers, and those who have overcome addiction.

We recognized after Tyler's passing that we wanted to help the community in Carteret County by providing support to our local treatment centers.

The organizations provide shelter, education, and support for men and women in Carteret County seeking recovery.

Vision

"Every Catch Counts"

Mission

?To make a difference for individuals battling breast cancer through fishing, fun, and fellowship.

About

Fishin' For A Cure is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization with events based across North Carolina. The goal of Fishin' For A Cure is to raise awareness of the importance of early detection as well as fighting to find a cure for women’s cancers.

?History

?Fishin' For A Cure was created in 2013. Originally, Fishin' For A Cure began with a small group of women who wanted to take their friend, recently diagnosed with breast cancer, fishing. Over time the group of supportive friends grew and grew.

In its first year, 2013, Fishin' For A Cure, the organization raised over $21,000 to support local non-profit organizations. In 2022, we reached our goal of $1,000,000. The Kay Yow Cancer Fund, friends for an earlier breast cancer test (earlier.org) and Little Pink Houses of Hope have been recipients of these funds. In 2014, Fishin’ For A Cure established a hope fund. This money is earmarked specifically for those who may need assistance during their cancer journey.
