South Carolina Governor's Cup Interview

The South Carolina Governor’s Cup Billfish Tournament was founded in 1989 by former S.C. Governor, Carroll A. Cambell Jr. This tournament promotes sportfishing, conservation, research, and education in the Lowcountry. In the state of South Carolina, between the early days of sportfishing and the birth of the Governor's Cup, South Carolina anglers were landing around 70% of the Billfish caught. Now, they are releasing 99% of the fish caught. Because of the great efforts of the Governor’s Cup and its participants, anglers competing in the series have been able to produce some amazing catches. The Rascal, owned by Norman F. Pulliam and captained by Mark Rogers, topped the Governor’s Cup fleet in 2005. The Blue Marlin they landed that year weighed in at 881 lbs. and still holds the South Carolina state record today!
