This was the adventures of Team Parkerized at the LionFish World Championship being held in Pensacola Florida on the Weekend of May 18, 19, & 20, 2018. There were 4 Divers and 1 Captain hitting some pyramids and other structures offshore from Pensacola. We ended the tournament placing 6th place with 639 fish. We also placed 5th for the smallest lionfish at 108mm. The winner was Florida Man with 2,403 lionfish. Overall the tournament removed 9,619 lionfish over the weekend. The pre-tournament removed 3,905 additional lionfish. I came in 5th on that part with 234 lionfish removed on 3 trips. Tim Shivers placed first in the Pre-Tournament with 690 Lionfish turned in. There were some really great prizes awarded. I made out with a regulator, zookeeper, dive trip for 2, and several other smaller prizes. It was a really great tournament.
