Photos: Bermuda Regiment Fishing Tournament
The Warrant Officers’ & Sergeants’ Mess of the Bermuda Regiment held their 58th annual Fishing Tournament yesterday [June 27]. The late afternoon weigh-in at Robinson’s Marina in Sandys saw boats pulling up and anglers unloaded dozens of fish to be weighed in. The official prize giving ceremony will take place next week.

God help this silly, backward little island if BDA taxpayers in any way funded this. I highly suspect we did.
I’d at least like a chunk of the tuna….
If you dislike what we do each year here in Bermuda,which you obviously do,then as a talk show host in the morning says…there are flights leaving here every day, get on one and go back home.
better be careful; you lot need us! You’re nothing without expats!!!!
This annual event has NEVER been paid for by taxpayers in any way. Just call up the Regiment and find out the information for yourself. This is an event that is open to the public just like the Bda. Regiment Annual Breakfast Run. So please feel free to call the Bermuda Regiment and find out more information about these events that are put on. And feel free to go to the prize presentation as several of the fish that is caught is also donated to them and cooked/fried up for consumption…..you might be able to get your piece of tuna you require.
Even if the tax payers did pay for it (which they never have) then the event would be covered under the Regiment Budget. Some people are so small minded. The next time the regiment are dispatched to clean up after a hurricane, I hope they drive right past your F*&king property!
I don’t see what would need to be funded. People go out on a boat with their own bait and fishing equipment and go fishing. What does government have to fund? And if they did fund it, it wouldnt be much. Get over it. It’s people going out on the ocean and enjoying themselves. Get out and have some fun once in a while.
come by the fish fry and eat some of my fish .that i paid 300 dollars to get . and the gas was 500 for the day .and the food and drinks but dont be so negative.it was a great day for fishing and i had i good time.
You’re jealous you didn’t get invited, can’t catch anything but a cold when you go fishing or you ain’t got no friends with a boat… Why do people like you even comment on local activities. No one gives a hoot what you do for fun in your country. Do us all a favor and read someone else’s news…!!!
