For 16 incredible years, the Jacksonville Flounder Pounder Fishing Tournament has reeled in more than just big catches — it’s brought in hope, community, and life-changing support for Jacksonville School for Autism. 🌊💛

This year’s tournament raised an astounding $174,500.00, and our hearts are overflowing with gratitude. None of this would be possible without the vision and dedication of one remarkable man — Chip Davis. Chip, your tireless efforts, passion, and commitment to JSA have created a legacy that has touched countless lives. From all of us at JSA, thank you — we are forever grateful. 💙

To our amazing sponsors and anglers, your generosity and compassion make this event truly special. Every cast, every donation, and every show of support helps make a difference for our students and families.

A heartfelt thank-you to the Flounder Pounder team — Teresa Davis & all the raffle/merch girls, Piper Nyx, Michelle Dunham, Ashley Kwon, Brian Dufek, Dawn Foster, Irene Batario, Dr. Kim Lucker-Greene, Trina Middleton, and the dock boys — for your countless hours of hard work and love poured into this event.

And a huge shoutout to Paul Rohan and the wonderful staff at Palm Valley Outdoors Bar & Grill for opening your doors and hearts to us once again. You made us feel like family, and we are so thankful for your warmth and generosity. 🐟💙

To all the winners and every single person who participated — thank you for being part of this beautiful tradition. Here’s to 16 years of fishing for a cause… and to many more ahead!

We can’t wait to see you next year for the 17th Annual Flounder Pounder Fishing Tournament! 🌊🎣💛
