Each club selects their best 5 fly fishers to this event, based upon their own criteria. The tournament format has completely changed. We will no longer have beats. There will be approx. one mile long sections where the participant can fish anywhere within the section. This will allow participants to enter easily accessible water and fish areas that are more suitable to their liking. This is a “catch and release” event, take pictures of your catch. There will be two (morning & afternoon) 2 hour sessions.

Rules:
1. Just fly fish in your own section and allow space between you and your competitors.

Meet at the Kern River Fly Shop at 8:00 am November 5, 2016 for check-in.
11301 Kernville Rd., Kernville, CA 93238
