2024 Plishing Challenge Winners Announced

September 06, 2024

Congratulations to everyone who participated in the 2024 SCWF Plishing Challenge! Everyone who entered something into the challenge, either litter they collected from their local waterways or a fish they caught, will receive a small token of our appreciation.

We are thrilled at the amount of litter that was collected this year totaling 1080 grocery sized bags of litter.  And approximately 700 fish were entered with the majority of those being released for extra points in the challenge.

A huge thanks to our amazing sponsors for making this happen for our third year-Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto Pride, Angling Women, Local Boy Outfitters, AFTCO, and the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.  And thanks again to all who participated in this incredible event promoting clean waterways, conservation, and fishing fun!
