For many of us YakAnglers, this is the time of year when we begin to feed this kayak fishing addiction by attending boat shows, Googling anything related to the sport, and preparing for local and regional tournaments.  I wanted to take a moment to share the upcoming schedule for the IFA Kayak Fishing Tour.

The 2011 IFA Kayak Fishing Tour finale is in the books. Kayak anglers from around the country battled it out in Chalmette Louisiana for a chance at being the 2011 IFA Kayak Fishing Tournament Champion. After two days of fishing Justin Carter emerged the victor with a combined total 105 inches winning him the championship and the 2011 Angler Of The Year.

The IFA kayak Fishing Championship presented by Hobie will be making its way to Chalmette, LA this weekend.These events have been held at multiple locations across the country and have drawn kayak anglers from all over. To participate in this event please see the details below.

After a great season of kayak fishing the IFA Kayak Fishing Tour will host its final regular season event in Ruskin, Florida.  You've seen many of the tournament recaps here on YakAngler and we are looking forward to seeing the tournmament results for this final event.  This is a great program that is helping to grow the sport of kayak fishing in a huge way and we are happy to be able to spread the word with other kayak anglers.

One of the largest and most publicized kayak fishing tournaments is in it's final home stretch of the 2011 season.  Many of us kayak anglers love reading stories about the winners of the IFA Kayak Fishing tournaments and we here at YakAngler love being one of the resources that you come to for that information.  The IFA kayak fishing regurlar season series will rap up October 15th in Orange Beach, Alabama.
