1st Annual Washington Carp Jamboree

June 19, 2017 by adminewa Leave a Comment


Yep, you read it correct, we are excited to announce the newest Carp on the Fly tournament to come to Washington.  Carp are a phenomenal species to target on with the fly rod and Washington has a ton of great habitat in which to pursue them.  There are 2 primary species of carp in Washington, the Common Carp and the Mirror Carp.  Neither of which require a WA fishing license to pursue for traveling anglers this is low hanging fruit! 

Here are some specs on the tournament:

August 12th, 2017 at Banks Lake in eastern WA

Maximum number of anglers will be 40

Fly fish only, single barbless hooks

Tournament fishing begins at day break

All catch records need to be into Bill Marts by 4pm Saturday to qualify for tournament

Awards ceremony will be at 5pm followed by dinner

$60 registration fee per angler which includes:

     Map of lake to help new anglers with locations around the lake to fish
     Free clinic with Bill Marts and others on Friday evening @ 7:30PM
     Dinner and beverages on Saturday evening after fishing
     Awards for top 5 anglers

Tournament winner is by sheer number of fish on the honor system.  Tie will be broken by largest carp landed, photo proof with tape measure in photo
