Just three fish are all that's needed to capture the $25,000 winner-take-all grand prize at the Islamorada Fishing Club's Captain's Cup Dolphin Tournament set for Wednesday and Thursday, June 4-5.

The only catch is that the aggregate weight of the three dolphin must be the highest in the tournament.

The fun is to start with a kick-off party Wednesday, June 4, at the club, mile marker 82 bayside in Islamorada.

The one-day boat-format tournament gets under way with lines in the water at 7:30 a.m. Thursday, June 5.

This year's tournament has a significant change in format from previous years to accommodate anglers with captains who travel by boat from other areas of the Keys.

Unlike previous years, fish do not have to be tagged. All fish to be weighed can be brought to the Islamorada Fishing Club by boat or car. Each fish must be at the club's certified weigh station by 5 p.m. sharp with the angler who caught it.

The awards banquet is set for 7:30 p.m. Thursday at the club.

Entry fee is $2,500 per boat, which allows two anglers to fish and includes four tickets to all social events.

Tournament directors guarantee a grand prize of $25,000, but the prize could be as high as $30,000 depending on the number of boats that enter the tournament.
