Using Fishing as a Force for Good

25th Annual Manhattan Cup!

Bringing anglers together in the spirit of service, the Manhattan Cup is more than a day on the water — it’s a mission to support veterans and honor sacrifice. Every cast helps fund programs that provide life-changing assistance to those who have served our country.

25th Anniversary of the Manhattan Cup

For more than two decades, the Manhattan Cup has brought hope, healing, and camaraderie to first responders and service members who suffered physical and emotional wounds in the aftermath of 9/11. Through the generosity of sponsors and the dedication of volunteers, over a thousand heroes have experienced the restorative power of a day on the water, fishing New York City’s legendary striped bass grounds while forming lasting connections within a supportive community. As we mark both the tournament’s 25th year and the 25th anniversary of the attacks, we invite you to help us continue this meaningful tradition and extend its impact to even more warriors.
