Kayak anglers test their meddle in our 7-month, multi-species fishing marathon!

If you’re a kayak angler that loves a challenge, if you like to fish for a variety of saltwater species and you have a bit of that competitive edge, you’d be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t sign up for the Coastal Kayak Clash (CKC).

A season-long tournament that pits you against your kayak fishing peers and that requires a healthy dose of planning and preparation, as you navigate a 7-month season, with the goal being to lead as many as seven species categories to net the grand prize.

You’ll have plenty of competition too, as a growing movement of yakkers have hitched their wagon to the Clash, seeing it as the ultimate challenge for the multi-species angler that chooses a kayak as their main means of piscatorial passage.

The Basics
How does the CKC work? Well, it’s really quite simple, anglers compete all season long and all eligible species are ‘fair game’ so long as there is an open season for that species in the state where the angler is fishing. We maintain a leaderboard at TheFisherman.com where the top three anglers are listed in each category, those positions earn points based on our points system, 3 points for a first place position, 2 for second and 1 for third. This means that the leaderboard is always in flux, leaders can be knocked down a level, and then upgrade the following week and land back in the top spot. Ultimately, the competitor with the most points on the final day of the tourney will be crowned the winner.

But wait, there’s more! There are also eight Largest of Species awards that CKC participants can set their sights on. Simply put, the fish that leads each species category (weakfish, black sea bass, scup/porgy, striped bass, false albacore/bonito, bluefish and tautog) on the final day of this 7-month, kayak fishing marathon will win a prize for that achievement.

CKC veterans may remember that we also have had Fish of the Month awards in the past, that awarded prizes for catching the largest of a designated species for each month of the tournament, fear not, we are still working out the details of the arrangement and we’ll provide more information when it becomes available.
