Marlin Club’s Heels & Reels ladies tournament underway By Lisa Capitelli Managing Editor (July 30, 2021) Lady anglers are the stars of the show during the Ocean City Marlin Club’s 13th annual Heels & Reels tournament, this weekend. The tournament is now underway as female anglers head offshore today and Saturday in search of marlin, tuna and dolphin. A number of ladies participate in the tournament annually, and many started off as junior anglers. “We have a lot of return anglers, and a lot of youth anglers as well,” Heels & Reels co-director Ryan Freese said last week. “It’s a fun tournament and it’s very affordable for the teams.” Many of the teams will wear matching T-shirts or have themed outfits. Anglers are permitted to fish
