Hook & Paddle

Get out on the water and into the competition with Hook and Paddle, a kayak fishing tournament series taking anglers across New Brunswick. In Woodstock, the tournament takes place on the Saint John River, surrounded by beautiful scenery and a landscape that makes every day on the water memorable. While the location may be familiar, the challenge is always changing. One event might have anglers targeting smallmouth bass, while another brings a multi-species challenge to the line.

The catch-photograph-release format keeps the focus on the experience, with individual tournaments offering prizes and overall winners. Anglers can also compete throughout the series, with series champions determined by their combined catch lengths across events around the province.

Bring your kayak, cast a line, and see what the Saint John River has in store.
