What you need to know

Sponsored by Mountainman Outdoor Supply Company and NRS.

 

The best Outdoor Expo in the area, and our first tournament of the year! Mountainman Outdoor Supply Company is putting on their annual Paddlefest on Fish Creek in Saratoga. Its the largest ON-WATER Canoe, Kayak, and Paddleboard sale in the capital region- with more than 1,000 boats from a dozen manufacturers. BRAND NEW Kayaks are arriving from Native Watercraft, Jackson Kayak, and Bonafide Kayaks for the show, so it's a great opportunity to see everything in person. More than boats, see the awesome gear, PFDs, and apparel from NRS, and check out gear and paddles from Aqua-Bound and Bending Branches. We will be there with an ADK KBF table too- so stop by and say hi!

​

With the amazing support of NRS and Mountainman Outdoor Supply Company our first tournament of the year will be our biggest and best yet! We have over $2,000 in prizes to give away, including a drawing for the amazing Pescador Pro 120 from Mountainman and Perception Kayaks. Every entrant in the tournament is eligible to win. The Winner will be drawn following Adirondack Paddlefest in Old Forge, NY on May 19th.

Angler of the Year (AOY) Structure

Our Angler of the Year Structure is simple: you get a point for every inch of fish.  

 

 

For each tournament you participate in your total submitted length will be added to your points total.  Your top 5 tournament totals will be counted to your total AOY points on the season. 

​​

So if you catch and submit 100" in 4 tournaments, but only 50" in two tournaments, your total points will be 450, as we will drop the lowest totals and only count your top 5.
