FCC CCA-Florida Silent Auction to Kickoff FishStock 2010

Anglers in New Smyrna and Daytona Beach are invited to participate in the CCA silent auction at FishStock, Thursday, May 27, 2009 from 4:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. at the Brannon Center, Riverside Park in New Smyrna Beach.

You're sure to find an impressive selection of fishing gear including rods, reels, electronics, works of art, sculptures and marine accessories, all at great prices. Plus, you'll enjoy the competitive auction atmosphere and the camaraderie of your fishing buddies from the opening bid through the final closing gavel.

All proceeds from this auction will benefit the local chapter and the Florida chapter of the CCA by funding advocacy initiatives designed to protect anger's rights as well as supporting legal costs for defending those rights and protecting our resources. CCA- Florida is a statewide organization working to protect marine resources and the interests of saltwater anglers. For more information on CCA-Florida, click on www.joinCCAflorida.org
