FROM EXPRESS TIMES

After a storied three-decade run, theForks of the Delaware Shad Fishing Tournament may be coming to an end now that organizers have canceled the event for 2014.

Pic Schoenek, executive director for the tournament, said declines in sponsorship support and angler participation led to the event's cancellation. The tournament, which in its early days had up to 1,500 entrants, drew fewer than 300 in 2013, the 31st-annual installment.
