🔥 WHO’S READY FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT IN 2027? 🔥

We’re thinking about kicking off the 2027 Saltwater Kayak Series season with a completely different kind of tournament!

🎣 REDFISH / GREEN FISH SHOWDOWN 🎣

Two Days. Two Different Fisheries. One Tournament. NO POINTS JUST BRAGGING RIGHTS!

🌊 Day 1 — Saltwater
🎣 Day 2 — Freshwater

We love growing the sport of competitive kayak fishing, and there’s no better way to do that than bringing anglers from the saltwater and freshwater sides of the sport together for one weekend.

Maybe you’re a redfish angler who has never competed for bass. Maybe you’re a bass angler who has never chased reds from a kayak. Here’s your chance to do both!

So we want to hear from YOU:

WHO’S IN?

And even more importantly — where should we hold it?

Drop your location suggestions in the comments! We’re looking for an area where we can have a great saltwater fishery and a great freshwater fishery close enough together to make this happen.
