Castin’ ‘N Catchin’ 2026
Over the past eleven years, Castin’ N Catchin’ has raised over $1,000,000 for the Pediatric and Congenital Heart Center at Children’s of Alabama. This accomplishment would not have been possible without the four families that made this event a reality. Drew and Jodie McNutt, Lee and Jessica Bradford, Jason and Lacey Simspon, and Justin and Heather Stroud all had babies born with Congenital Heart Defects (CHD)
Together, these families decided they wanted to help advance CHD research and improve the quality of care for other children in Alabama. Fishing has always been a passion for those on the committee, so hosting a fishing tournament seemed like a great fit! Castin’ N’ Catchin’ started in 2016 as a professionally run tournament and is now the largest family-run charity fishing tournament in the nation. With the community’s help, the committee has pledged to continue this annual event.

Redstone GCI has been honored to be a sponsor for the event since shortly after the charity was co-founded by one of our team members, Heather Stroud, and her husband, with the goal of raising $1M. So far, across 7 tournaments over 8 years, the organization has reached its $1M goal! We are so proud of Heather and all she has accomplished, and we cannot wait to see the organization cross the $1M mark in support of such an amazing cause. To date, the money raised from Castin’ ‘n Catchin’ has funded a full-time research assistant, research on renal care for cardiac patients, and a camp to teach patients with cardiac issues about caring for their condition.
