Welcome to KFNW!

Kayak Fishing Northwest (KFNW) is the Northwest’s Tournament Tour Series since 2016. We operate kayak fishing tournaments in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. We’re independently run by local folks who live and breathe the kayak fishing lifestyle. By working together, we are able to bring more opportunities to anglers in the Pacific Northwest. KFNW is comprised of three divisions: Idaho Kayak Bass Fishing (IKBF), Oregon Kayak Bass Fishing (OKBF), and Washington Kayak Bass Fishing (WKBF). We are dedicated to providing a fun, competitive series where ALL are welcome.

KFNW, IKBF, OKBF, and WKBF host multiple live events and online challenges each season. Some are Sanctioned Tournaments (membership is required, Angler-of-the-Year points are tracked) and some are Opens (no membership required, no AOY points tracked).

West Coast Championship

The West Coast Championship was founded in 2021. We are again partnering with clubs from Arizona, northern and southern California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington to qualify anglers for the 5th Annual West Coast Championship at Clear Lake, CA in August.

Tour Events 1, 3, and 4 will be qualifying events. The top 25% of registered anglers who complete an event qualify for the WCC. Alternatively, if you complete all three WCC events, you automatically qualify.
