Flying Fisherman SunBandit

Reach 25 species and claim a Flying Fisherman SunBandit ($17.95 value), donated to the challenge by Flying Fisherman — 50 units in the pool.

How the 50 are awarded: The first 50 anglers to reach 25 species each claim a SunBandit, in the order anglers cross 25. If fewer than 50 anglers reach 25 by December 31, any remaining SunBandits are awarded down the final leaderboard from the top until all 50 are gone. Either way, all 50 ship.

Grand Prize

Awarded to the angler with the most unique species for the full 2027 year.

Most Species Wins the Pool

The overall winner takes a prize package built from gear donated by our launch sponsors. More items are being added as sponsors come on board — this is the starting lineup, not the final one.
