We will present three awards for our 2009 program. The three divisions will be:
• BAY CAPTAIN OF THE YEAR
• BLUEWATER CAPTAIN OF THE YEAR
• OVERALL CAPTAIN OF THE YEAR

To be eligible to win one of these prestigious awards simply enter the tournaments that pertain to your area of fishing, or you could try to win the Overall Captain of the Year by entering all four tournaments.

Each captain that enters a tournament will automatically be entered into the contest and will receive points for entering each tournament.

At the conclusion of the Tournament Series the captain with the most points will be declared the winner. The winners will receive a magnificent trophy and free entry into the following year's tournaments in their prospective category. Total value of the three awards is worth more than $1,300 to the winners.
