7 year old catches 46 pound blue cat her first time ever!!

08/30/2026

Took my little on on her first daddy daughter trip and she crushed her PB with a 46 pounder! Couldnt be more proud she cranked on it all the way to the boat by herself and didnt quit even when the drag was peeling off as the fish fought. Days like today are what its all about and what our main goal here is on VA Katfishin to get the kids out and share our passion for the water. Ironside Catfishing trophy hooks kept the fish pinned all the way to the net securing a personal best for this 7 year old.

👑 SPONSORS WANTED — KINGS OF THE JAMES 2026 👑

Kings of The James is coming back to Osborne Landing October 15–17, and we’re looking for businesses and brands that want to be a part of one of the biggest weekends in trophy catfishing on the James River!

Every year, this event brings anglers, families, fans, and businesses together from across the region and beyond — and none of it happens without our sponsors.

This year represents an even bigger opportunity to get your company in front of the catfishing and outdoor community.

🔥 One of our biggest additions is our MASSIVE on-site video wall.

Last year we were able to display sponsor advertisements, logos, tournament graphics, announcements, and more throughout the event. It completely changed the atmosphere at Osborne Landing and gives our sponsors something far beyond putting a logo on a banner.

Your business can be represented before the tournament, throughout the entire event, during weigh-ins and awards, on our social media, and right on the big screen in the middle of it all.

We have sponsorship opportunities for businesses of all sizes, from companies wanting to become major partners of Kings of The James to smaller businesses that simply want to support the tournament and get their name in front of our anglers.

Registration / Captains Meeting: October 15
🎣 Fishing: October 16 & 17

If your business wants to support Kings of The James 2026, now is the time to get involved.

We have the platform. We have the anglers. We have the audience. We want YOUR business beside us.

📩 Message the Kings of The James page or contact us for the 2026 Sponsorship Packet and available opportunities.

To everyone who has supported this tournament over the years — THANK YOU. You are the reason we have been able to continue growing this event and putting on the tournament our anglers deserve.
