SLAM

SLAM is a 2 or 3-Fish combination of 1 Redfish, 1 Speckled Trout and 1 Flounder. Anglers who weigh a 3-Fish SLAM, a.k.a. Grand SLAM, are rewarded with 2 bonus pounds added to their overall weight. The angler with the heaviest combined weight wins (regardless if 2 or 3 fish are weighed). Only 1 per species is allowed. The redfish may not exceed 27”. 12” minimum for Speckled Trout, 10" for Flounder.

Examples of legal SLAM’s-
GRAND SLAM: 3lb trout+2lb flounder+4lb redfish (+2lb bonus weight) = 11lb
2-FISH SLAM: 2lb trout+5lb redfish= 7lb
