Rumble in the Jungle KMT is a King Mackerel fishing tournament held in the Little River, South Carolina area. First held in 2002, the event brings anglers together for a two-day competition, with fishing scheduled for October 16 and 17, 2026, and registration, a captain’s meeting, dinner, and an awards brunch forming part of the wider program. The tournament provides event information, rules, schedules, registration details, sponsor and team listings, results, and links to a live leaderboard and live weigh-in coverage.

Competitors can pursue guaranteed prizes, including $30,000 for first place overall and $10,000 for the first-place small-boat category, defined as boats with 300 horsepower or less. Optional tournament-within-a-tournament entries offer additional awards for categories such as high roller, two-fish aggregates, small boats, and the heaviest single fish. Special awards also recognize the catch closest to 20.02 pounds and a fish that exceeds the tournament record. Rumble in the Jungle KMT serves anglers and spectators through its competitive event, event-day weigh-ins, results, and online tournament updates.
