What does an award-winning songwriter and musician, top radio personality and former Major League Baseball players have in common?  They will all be in Puerto Vallarta from November 8 to 11 to support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's annual fishing and golf tournament, Hook the Cure powered by IOTEC.

Nashville recording artist, Lucas Hoge, will be joined by popular Southern California air personality and voice of the Golden Globes and the American Music Awards, Shawn Parr, as well as baseball legends Rick Honeycutt and Matt Young for the seventh annual fundraiser which has netted over $2 million USD to further the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's mission of eradicating the disease which robs an innocent life every eight hours.  

Hook the Cure is not your every day catch-and-release fishing tournament. This is a fishing event where not only do our participants enjoy one of the greatest fishing locales in the world but also enjoy first-class all-inclusive accommodations at Villa Premiere Hotel and Spa, gourmet meals, relaxing spa treatments, world-class golf at Vista Vallarta Club de Golf and nightly social events.

Sponsors of the official IGFA-qualifier include IOTEC Integrated Office Technology, Watson Land Company, BJ's Restaurant, William Martin, Jr. Family, O’Connell Family Foundation, Lancaster Development, CBRE, American Airlines, Norm Wilson & Sons, Letner Roofing & Waterproofing Co., Skipper & Duke's Offshore Fishing Series, Hallagan Family, William Close Family, Hunter Landscape, Millie & Severson, Redbone Tournament Series, Karma Tequila and Barefoot Wine.
