NAC Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) I'm sure many of you power-boaters just sighed after reading the description. I tried in 2007 to make something happen, but being one of very few in Ontario who used a kayak as their primary mode of fishing.... and then again last year(some of you may remember my post), I was so hopeful of making it happen only to have it dashed by too few anglers willing to commit. Now in 2009 with the population of yakfishers doubling and tripling the past few years, it is going to happen and it's gonna be BIG! Please see Announcements and Contests for details.

Chris Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Great just what we need......agressive tournament kayakers putting added pressure on the fishery and cutting you off on the water. Just joking .....good luck with the tourney! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike the Pike Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 So how will it work no livewell Hope nothing will be dragged around on a chain.Perhaps a boat will hone in and take measurements or do you take a pic and go with the honour system. WTG sounds like it will be a great tournament Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAC Posted February 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 C-P-R Mike... catch, photo, release all the way. Everyone will get a standard measuring devise upon sign-in and it must be used in the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAC Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 It's two weeks away now folks and there are 2 - 16' high end fishing kayaks to be won, each valued over $1600, plus a pile of other gear. We now have a website for the tourney Ontario Kayak Fishing Classic There's going to be a bunch of boats there to demo for free if anyone is interested in just trying it out or seeing what it's all about.

MCTFisher9120 Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) I would like to see on how they can keep bass alive and healthy with plenty of Oxygen...Or a stringer through the gills can work too Unless it's C&R but well i don't know how its gonna work...

NAC Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Unless it's C&R but well i don't know how its gonna work... It's actually C-P-R, but you'd know that if you read any of the post. Read and react folks not the reverse. Just remember that a big reason 90% of us went to kayak from motorboat is conservation. Here's what it's all about, Catch-Photo-Release: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashhopper Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) I don't see a prize, for "the wildest ride" caught on video ! That little bass I caught while out on a kayak last year pulled me all over the narrow section of the Maitland river... i can't imagine the thrill of being yanked around by something bigger on more open water.. Maybe give the winner of the wildest ride, an anchor or a drift sock ? Have fun guys. Splashhopper Edited June 24, 2009 by splashhopper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to hear but I'm guessing that measurements are taken along with photos to prove your catch. Only can skip through that link you showed me.
