The 29th Annual Fingers O’Bannon Invitational Memorial Snook Tournament
April 27th, 28th & 29th, 2023
The Fingers O’Bannon Memorial Fishing Tournament is a prestigious invite only tournament dedicated to the life and memory of the late Floyd “Fingers” O’Bannon.
Born October 10, 1926 Fingers O’Bannon became famous for fishing our pristine local waters. His death on September 27, 1993 prompted many to take action to remember his legacy.
On behalf of Cabbage Key and the O’Bannon family we would like to thank all past and present sponsors and congratulate previous winners and anglers that have made the tournament such a success year after year. As always, we look forward to your participation again this following year.

The Cabbage Key Open Fishing Tournament
October 23rd & 24th, 2020
Like the Fingers O’Bannon Memorial Fishing Tournament, the Cabbage Key Open is an invite only tournament.
The Cabbage Key Open originated in 2002 as a tournament simply known by many as the “Hooters” tournament at Cabbage Key. Thanks to the contributions from our friends at “Hooters”, the tournament got off to a fast start which helped propel the tournament into one of the more popular tournaments in the area.
On behalf of Cabbage Key we would like to thank all past and present sponsors and congratulate previous winners and anglers that have made the tournament such a success year after year. As always, we look forward to your participation again this following year.
