2026 Carolina Billfish Classic

The Carolina Billfish Classic is the fourth leg of the South Carolina Governor's Cup Billfishing Series, held out of Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina at Patriots Point in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina. The 2026 event runs June 17–20. By this point in the series, Governor's Cup standings are well established — the CBC is where teams with points on the board push for position and teams chasing the series title make their move. Black Book has vessels positioned in the Carolinas for tournament season. If you want to fish the CBC on a privately owned, tournament-rigged sportfish boat with a crew that competes at this level, this is where to start.

Availability is limited. Inquire early.

Dates: June 17–20, 2026
