About this event

Fish N Paddle Saltwater Slam is an eighth annual June 27–28 tournament for kayak and stand-up paddle anglers.

Atlantic Tackle is the listed host, at 12930 Sunset Ave, and can clarify the current packet and check-in details.

Paddle events use measurement and photo rules rather than assuming a conventional dock-scale process; prepare the required evidence before launch.

It shares the weekend with the Worcester County Chamber flounder tournament, but the two events have separate hosts and procedures.

Review inshore bay fishing, weather, and tournament FAQ before selecting a launch plan.

Quick planning tips

  • Pad marina and Route 50 minutes—tournament weeks compress West Ocean City and inlet corridors.
  • Book lodging early; billfish and tuna weeks stack with summer beach demand.
  • Confirm weigh-in windows and public viewing rules with the host marina before you promise kids a “scale night.”

Top FAQs

Does OCEANCITY.MD sell entries for Fish N Paddle Saltwater Slam?
No—register only through the official tournament or host marina channels linked on this page. We publish planning context, not entry desks.
Will this tournament affect my recreational charter day?
Often yes near host docks—weigh-in crowds, trailer traffic, and reserved slips can slow staging. Ask your captain, and keep a non-tournament backup window. See charter trip picker and marinas.
Can I fish from a boat?
This listing is for kayak and SUP anglers; confirm eligible craft directly with Atlantic Tackle.
