The Beach Haven Marlin and Tuna Club, the home of the longest running white marlin tournament in the United States every August, is seeking sponsors for a first-ever fishing event scheduled for June 6-12.

“The First Annual Beach Haven Tuna Open Tournament is the season’s earliest tuna tournament in New Jersey, when the tuna fishing is at its best and tournament fishermen are chomping at the bit to get on the leader boards,” said Andres Hernandez, tournament director.
