2025 Plishing Challenge Winners Announced

September 02, 2025

We are very excited to announce the winners of the 2025 Plishing Challenge! For the second year in a row, Cyrus Rouggly was the winner for the overall number of fish caught. Taylor Campbell came on strong to win the litter portion of the challenge. Adam Mosher was this year’s random winner. Each of these grand prize winners will receive a $500 gift card to Palmetto State Armory!

 

We are truly grateful to everyone who participated in this year’s challenge. A combined total of 1,525 fish were caught (and most were released for extra points!), and 307 bags of litter were removed from waterways, creating a cleaner habitat for fish – and us humans! All those who logged fish or litter in the 2025 challenge will receive a small token of appreciation in the mail from SCWF.

 

We are very grateful to all of our sponsors for supporting our conservation initiative for the fourth year in a row! Thank you to Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto Pride, Angling Women, Local Boy Outfitters, FishRazr, AFTCO, and the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources. Your commitment to conservation allows SCWF to offer this wonderful event to promote clean waterways, conservation of our natural resources, and fishing fun.
