UPDATE: 2017 is officially closed so we'll be getting the 2018 signup and leaderboard up and running.

Prize announcements coming soon and all that fun stuff.

DON'T FORGET THAT 2018 AOTY HAS ALREADY STARTED. Fish caught now will count as long as you sign up inside the grace period. I can't guarantee anything but I don't see any rule changes coming that would significantly affect your strategy this time of year.

Huge thank you to islandson671 for contributing a load of prizes to the 2017 prize pool!

Thanks Cap'n and all who helped organize and judge ATOY 2017.  Had a great time this year.
I expected the worst, but it was worse than I expected...

I haven't forgotten about 2017!

Much like last year, January has turned out to be a very busy month for me. I am working on finalizing the details of the prizes and will be working on getting some things done on this in the next few days. Thank you for your patience!

2017 prize distribution is ON LIKE TRON  :banjo:

Look for messages in your PM box here on NWKA starting tomorrow, or proactively PM me your address if you're in the top 10 in the Main Event, or top spot in the side challenges, or top 3 in the Fly challenge.

EDIT: Also all of the Youth Division participants will be receiving prizes. I know most of them but if the parent of Gr8playz can PM me that would help, since I don't know who that is. Thanks!

EDIT 2: I realize you can't see all of the details in the picture but we have 4x $50 gift certs for RAM, $25 gift cert to ACK, a couple of rod holders, 2 gel seat cushions, a Lucid fish grip, a hand bilge, a t shirt, TONS of Big Hammer baits, $15 Cabela's gift cert, Lancer Jigs, track-mount cup holder, YakAttack track-mount paddle holders, Hoo-Rags, gear tracks, STORM baits, 2 hats, paddle leashes, drink koozie, and more. I can't wait to mail this stuff out!

Indeed.  Your efforts are greatly appreciated.  This stuff is fun to do but there's always background work and we appreciate it.
Kayaking without wearing a PFD is like drunk driving.  You can get away with it for a while, but eventually someone dies.

A HUGE thanks to islandson as well - he nearly doubled the prize pool with his contributions from various sources.

THANK YOU!
