Thank you to the captains, crews, sponsors, volunteers, families, and supporters who made the 25th Annual Big Game Battle one to remember. The 2026 tournament brought another incredible week of competition, camaraderie, and giving to the Nantucket Boat Basin.
Congratulations to T-Rex, our 2026 overall champion, along with the top finishers in Divisions 1 and 2. Explore the full tournament recap for results and weekend highlights, then relive the action in the 2026 photo gallery.
The tournament may be over, but its impact continues. Help us finish strong for Jack’s Drive 55 and the fight against pediatric brain tumors.
Since 2002, The Big Game Battle has brought together anglers for an unforgettable fishing experience. What began with a few boats has grown into a celebrated invitational event with over 50 boats and 300 participants.
More than a competition, it’s a community tradition focused on fun, friendship, and giving back. The true winners are the charitable organizations we proudly support. In 2025, we surpassed $2,000,000 raised for causes that matter since the inception of the tournament 24 years ago.
We are proud to announce Jack’s Drive 55 as our 2026 Charity Partner.
Jack’s Drive 55 raises critical funds for pediatric brain tumor research, supporting the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation and groundbreaking work at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. What began as a grassroots effort fueled by family, friends, and the hockey community has grown into a powerful movement to advance research for low-grade glioma (PLGG) and other pediatric brain tumors.
We are honored to stand alongside Jack’s Drive 55 to help fund lifesaving research and support families facing the unimaginable.
Support the spirit of competition, community, and charitable giving at the 25th Annual Big Game Battle. Sponsorships help us maximize our impact—both on and off the water—while giving partners a unique platform to connect with an engaged and loyal audience.
