EKFT Championship Ring information for the Summer Slam Series

Picture
Total weight of the EKFT Sailfish Smackdown & Summer Slam Series wins the customized Extreme Championship Ring. This does NOT mean you have to compete in all 3 events. An angler can fish one or all tournaments to gather as much weight as possible, Eligible fish for the ring are the eligible fish for total weight in each tournament. Only Sailfish are eligible in the Sailfish Smackdown. 

NEWLY ADDED: EKFT SAILFISH POINTS SYSTEM TOWARD THE EKFT CHAMPIONSHIP RING

Anglers can now gain weight points toward the Summer Slam Series Championship Ring at the Sailfish Smackdown Tournament! Each Sailfish caught and safely released on either day of the Sailfish Smackdown tournament will automatically guarantee that angler 5lbs of weight per Sailfish caught going into the Summer Slam Series in 2022. This will give anglers a head start going into the Summer Slam Series. NOTE: These weight points are only added towards the EKFT Championship Ring at the end of the year and not toward individual Summer Slam events.

​Find out eligible fish and rules here.  The winner of the ring will be presented with it at a future EKFT tournament scheduled in 2023. The angler that wins the ring MUST be present in receiving the ring. If not present, the ring will be given to the angler that finished second in overall accumulated weight for the Summer Slam Series. If an out of state angler wins the ring then the EKFT committee will schedule a time that works best for that angler to be presented with the ring at a future EKFT tournament.


2020 CHAMPIONSHIP RING CHAMPION IS ROB RODRIGUEZ!
