PORTLAND, OR — Kayak Fishing Northwest (KFNW) is proud to announce Diamond Parking & Self Storage as the exclusive Presenting Sponsor for the 2026 KFNW Tour, supporting five marquee Tour Events across Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, and the season-ending Kayak Bass Classic.
In addition to presenting Sponsorship for our Tour Events, Diamond Parking & Self Storage is also the presenting sponsor for four seasonal awards:
- KFNW Angler of the Year – $1,000
- KFNW Rookie of the Year – $250
- KFNW Citation Big Bass Awards – $500
- KFNW Longest Limit – $250
“KFNW is built on community, competition, and conservation—and Diamond’s support helps us deliver a best-in-class angler experience from the first launch to the final check-in,” said Marvin Forte, KFNW Director. “We’re excited to partner with a brand that serves anglers and traveling families throughout the Northwest.”
At Diamond, we understand that adventure starts long before you hit the water—it begins with having a trusted place to park, store, and prepare,” said Jim Cary, Regional Manager for Diamond Parking and Self Storage. “Whether it’s a weekend fishing trip or a cross-country journey, our customers rely on us to provide safe, convenient, and well-managed spaces that fit their lifestyle.
Our partnership with KFNW is more than a sponsorship; it’s a shared commitment to the people and places that make the Pacific Northwest special. Like KFNW, we believe in hard work, integrity, and community—values that have guided Diamond for over a century. From our roots in Seattle to the thousands of parking and storage locations we manage today, we’re proud to support an organization that celebrates the same spirit of exploration and connection that drives everything we do.
In addition to the Tour and Classic, KFNW will run two grassroots series—the Spring Open and Summer Open (four events each)—designed to welcome new anglers and grow local participation across the region. These Opens operate independently of core Tour sponsorships; Diamond’s presenting support focuses on the Tour and Classic experience.
