Fishing tournament
Fishing tournaments are annual events hosted by Melville or Billy Budd. The goal of the fishing tournament is to catch the most fish per day under the five rod categories - Twig, Bamboo, Hardwood, Steel, and Gold.

| What an incredible day for fishertoons everywhere! Thousands of Toons from every neighborhood turned out for the greatest fishing competition Toontwon has ever seen. Over 2.4 million pounds of fish were caught - that's the weight of 22 blue whales! (if you don't believe me, visit a whale-weigh station, and see for yourself!) Four Toons proved they were really "hooked" on fishing: Tornado, Sir Tubby Thundermuffin, Toon-anator, and Lady Zippy Whiskergoose. Together, they caught enough fish to start their own ocean, and enough boots to open their own shoe store! Billy Budd sends his thanks to everyone who participated: "You Toons are the 'reel' deal, and that's no fish story!" |
