Jacksonville May 8th http://www.jaxkayakfishing.com/tournament.html This one is suppose to be the biggest and lots of prizes

IFA 3 dates for Pcola, PC, & OB http://www.redfishtour.com/

KayakBassFishing.com will be putting on a month long king tourney starting in mid March. OPPS I MEANT MID APRIL! They also just announced there lmb tourneys for the year.

Check them out. They've got a huge forum membership. Many of them fish saltwater as well as fresh. That's a KBF logo on the kayak on Neptune's logo! I will be at the farm a good bit as the hay season starts and plan to enter some of the lmb tourneys.

If the king tourneyin APRIL/MAYhas a good turn out then Chad aka Knot Right plans to run one a month!

Here is the link to the Saltwater section of the KBF website:

I love tournaments, but have not gotten into the online tournament thing besides KWs because I'm an offshore guy. So, regardless of the name, I'm interested if Kings are on the "menu". I also prefer money and gift certificates over prizes and they are calcutta tournaments. Doc, unless something has changed, the first Yak-N-Kings tournamentruns April 15-May 15th.

KBF isalso planning on a Saltwater Challenge for the year. 1st and 2nd gets a kayak, and will probably be redfish and trout. They are still working out the details, but it will be free.

The Kingof Crab Island tournament in Destin I heard will be happening again this year. I really like the format of that one with a cash payout and aggregate weight of 3 top fish.

I was planning on putting together three 1-day kayak tournaments at Navarre Beach this year since everyone seemed to enjoy what we did last summer. A cobia/king tournament April or May, king only tournament May or June and a tarpon/king tournament July or August. I plan to set dates outside of other weekend tounaments. I will send out more info at a later date, but feel free to PM me your thoughts.

The FCKA tourney listed above is a great one to attend. Not too far from you guys (just south of Tallahassee) and we have some great inshore kayak fishing habitat. This year we are giving away 7 kayaks including a women's division and a youth division. Good folks and good times. Come see us at the end of March.

I'm new here, but I didn't come here to make this my first post. I'm doing some planning for a trip in early april for Cobia, but I stumbled across this post. Anyhow, check out kayakfishingtrail.com. GKF is putting on a 4-stop tourney trail through-out the state of Georgia. First stop is lake Harding in 10 days.
