I went to the Cold Lake tournament last year, was a really good time. I wish there was a tournament that targeted walleye as well though!

Glad you had a good time! I was also at the tourney, I hooked plenty of fish but couldn't get anything to the boat because I forgot a net lol. I think the tournaments have to conform to the regulations, even if its a catch and release tournament, so we would have to find a lake where you could keep walleye to host an event.

Unfortunately the dates and locations are tentative until licenses from Fisheries are issued. As soon as everything is confirmed I will update the website so keep an eye on the page!

Hey,
Can you pull the date and location picture down from your site until we get all the CFEs in? I have been asked by fisheries to not have them posted.. thought I had them all but he sent me a picture of your post.. Once we get the licenses, we will post again on the Western Canada Kayak Trail page.
Thanks

there is a Kayak tourney at Moutcha Bay on Nootka Sound for returning Springs for the Canuma River.
Imagine being towed around the bay by a 35 Pd spring!

If you kayak fish, the Moutcha derby is a must at least once, it was very fun. With luck the wife and I will make it there this year, it is currently on the calendar.
I have done the eastslope classic a couple of times and it's a good time.

I've seen the pictures from the Moutcha Bay tournament and it looks wild! I cant imagine being towed around by a fish like that! I havent been able to make it to all the tournaments in the past but I'm trying to change that this year. I do have fun every time though, great to get out fishing and meet a good group of like minded people.

Winning fish there is usually mid to high 20's. My 23 lber won it last year.
I like chasing them out on the open water myself but that is a lot more work/harder to do then jigging them up at mouth of the river. Moutcha is probably the easiest place for someone to catch a spring out of a kayak.
They sold out last year so anyone interested in going should book early.

I registered for the first time at moutcha bay last month. There were camping spots left. My wife is coming along in her kayak to laugh with me at my efforts. Been wanting to do this for a few years. My rivers inlet trip is moved to an earlier week so theres no conflict this year.
