Charleston, SC (Feb. 20,, 2019) - Toadfish Outfitters of Charleston, SC took home two notable accolades from the 2019 Big Rock Sports Show in Nashville for their Coastal Kitchen Collection: Overall Best of Show (Fishing/Camping/Marine) and Best Terminal Tackle and Accessory, beating out thousands of retailers, manufacturers, and products.


“To have our products recognized during one of the largest and most successful distributor shows in the industry was a real honor,” said Casey Davidson, founder of Toadfish Outfitters. “We grew up on the coast and come from generations of fisherman so it’s exciting to see the outdoor community embrace and recognize our designs.”


The awarded product, the Coastal Kitchen Collection, combines the most innovative seafood tools on the market into one set and includes:


- Put 'Em Back™ Oyster Knife - A fresh look at ergonomics with a bent tip design and handles made from recycled plastic bottles. Opens oysters with ease.

- Frogmore™ Shrimp Cleaner - First of its kind tool that peels, deveins, and butterflies shrimp in one smooth motion. A perfect shrimp every time.

- Toadfish™ Crab Cutter - Flawlessly cuts crab shells instead of smashing them. Creates less mess and stunning presentations.


For every Toadfish product sold, the Charleston-based company plants 10 sq. ft. of oyster habitat.


“Oysters are the ultimate friend of the coast as they help to keep our waters clean,” said Davidson. “A single oyster filters up to fifty gallons of coastal water per day, removing the toxins from runoff and creating a coastal habitat where hundreds of smaller species like barnacles, mussels, crab, can thrive.”


The Coastal Kitchen Collection, which retails for $88, is available for purchase at www.toadfishoutfitters.com and participating retailers.
