Sean Norden has had a hand in numerous saltwater fishing tournament victories as a member of the Conched Out fishing team.
But topping a 66-boat fleet to win Saturday’s Mercury/SeaVee Pompano Beach Saltwater Showdown was extra special for Norden and his crew on In-2-Bait.

Norden, Scott Scacciaferro, Steve Akins and Chris Niesel formed a fishing team this year to compete in the three events that make up the Pompano Beach Saltwater Circuit — the Shootout, the Slam and the Showdown.

To win one of them so quickly, and a total payday of $12,951, including $8,000 for first place, was a very pleasant surprise. Norden credited his teammates on Conched Out, in particular Capt. Corey McBride, for his development as a tournament fisherman.
