Coming this April — we're bringing back the tournament that's all about the spots, not the size.
2025 was an absolute blast, but we're ready to raise the stakes, add bigger prize packages, and make No. 3 the best one yet. Three divisions. Thousands in prizes. One entire month to fish.
What is the Red Spot Round Up?
It's a unique redfish tournament open to all waters where redfish roam for the entire month of April.
But here's the twist: It's not about how big your fish is — it's about how many non-connected spots you can fit inside our official 2" "Red Spot Round Up Red Card" circle on one fish.
No boat required. Boat, beach, bridge, dock, or your preferred vessel. All are welcome.
How It Works
- You've got the entire month of April to fish and submit as many Card entries as you want.
- Each Red Card is reusable — so keep hunting for that spotted champion.
- The more you fish, the better your chances to win.
Three Divisions
- Fly
- Spin
- Guide
Who Can Compete?
Everyone. From tailing redfish fanatics to secret pond explorers — if you can legally catch a redfish, you can play.
- Flick a fly
- Soak a crab
- Throw your favorite lure
The heart of this event is celebrating the accessibility of chasing our favorite fish, however you like to do it, with the people you love to fish with.
The Hoss Spot
Here's a little extra firepower for your entry.
Thanks to our friends at Hoss Straps, we're introducing the Hoss Spot — an exclusive bonus that gives you an edge on the competition. Post your catch on Instagram, like and follow both @HossStraps and @AfterWorkFishClub, and you'll earn one additional spot added to your official count.
One post. One follow. One extra spot. In a tournament where every spot counts, this one could be the difference.
