Got the Competitive Fishing Bug, But Not All the Tools? - Online Tournament Fishing

Lately at 1-2-6 Fishing we have been spouting off on social media about our "Online Tournament" escapades.  In return we have been receiving a bunch of questions about it and recently a huge online tourney opened just a week ago.  So, why not give a bit of information out there so others can join us!

Maybe you are like us and love to fish, as well as have an extreme passion for competing and you are sitting there watching the FLW and Bassmaster tourneys on TV wishing you could do something like that, but you are without the boat or the $$ to pay entry fees of that caliber.  Well let us tell you that you can compete right at your local pond and win some money and bigger prizes.  YES, we are serious!  With the big bang Internet explosion it makes it possibly for the financially disabled anglers to compete.

You are probably already asking, well how the H-E-double hockey sticks does something like that work.  And simply here is the run down for most of the online tournament sites.

Step 1:  Register to the online tournament site.  Basic name and where to send your check info is required here.

Step 2:  Find the dates on the schedule you want to compete and enter those specific tournament days.  Some are FREE entry with you able to win money.  Some you will have to pay an entry fee, BUT they are as low as $7 up to the highest we have seen of $25 bucks.

Step 3:  Go fishing and take pictures of your catches next to a bump board/ruler/tape measure or scale (all dependent on the tourney rules).  The picture will also have to include a "Token".  This token is something each online tournament has for you to print out when you enter and needs to be in the picture with the catch.  The token shows the tourney officials that your catch was within the time frame of that tournament.

Step 4:  Upload your pics to the proper chain.  The tourney official will let you know how or where to upload your pics.

Step 5:  Sit back after landing some big beasts and see how you fair against others.  Hopefully they are sending you a check! ;)


It is really that simple!  Also, to know that you are competing for a chance to win some prize money fills that need.

Alright so here are the Top 2 online tourney sites that we compete in.  Registration is FREE and both have a lot of FREE entry fees too!

Bounty Fishing - www.BountyFishing.com

Online Fishing Tournament - www.OnlineFishingTournament.com


Even better and if you are a pure diehard Bass fool like we are then you have to check out the newest creation online!

www.WorldBassLeague.com

The World Bass League is sure to be a huge hit!  Registration to the World Bass League is free and to compete in the month long league is FREE.  Here is the kicker...... If you finish the tourney schedule in the Top 50 you automatically qualify to go and compete on Lake Okeechobee with boat rentals provided AND the chance to win $1,000 with Bass Pro Gift Certificate, a Jon Boat and other prizes for a 1st place finish.  2nd to 3rd place also wins money and gift certificates.


Since you are online reading this anyway, go and check out these sites and get registered!  Great chance to win some money on your own local honey hole.
