King Master Tournament underway in Biloxi

Anglers are on the Gulf Coast vying for the King Master Tournament.

The teams competing in it sped out to a shotgun start this morning. There are 22 boats vying for more than $125,000 in cash prizes.

The boats launched in four-foot seats that made for a wild ride as they headed for blue water south of the Barrier Islands.

The 2023 King Master is presented by Yellowfin. Weigh-in will be 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday at Point Cadet.
