APRIL EVENTS - 2022

[UPDATED] April is jam-packed with tournaments! Here are the links and info on all the upcoming events.

HKB April Upcoming Events Schedule Graphic

The action gets going right away in April, with two series from GRBY and two different on-site events the first weekend of the month. Below, check out the full breakdown of all the events this month.

 

MAR 31 - APR 04 | GRBY - NYONA | SULLIVAN LAKE

GRBY Nyona Series Presented by Smiseks Custom Baits

GRBY Sullivan Series Presented by TRCcovers

Things start with a Bang in April, as the GRBY Sullivan and Nyona series open up Thursday, March 31st through April 4th. These will be very competitive events. Based on some chatter within the community, it appears many anglers are signing up for these, which will mean good payouts and serious HKB TOP25 points to be earned.



 

APR 01 - 30 | KBF CHALLENGE SERIES - IN

KBF April Challenge Series

We all saw just the impossible done in March! Can anyone challenge the newly set record, made by Glenn Landstrom? There is one thing for sure - you don't have a chance unless you sign up. With all the events and fishing to be had in April, signing up for the Month-Long event is a no-brainer. Indiana has been pulling some great numbers for these events for the past 2-3 years and we expect this one to be no different.


 

APRIL 02 | HKB LAST CHANCE EVENT

The HKB Last Chance event gives qualifying anglers an opportunity to fish for a large cash payout and more importantly, a final chance to qualify for the 2022 HKB State Championship on Lake Wawasee in Syracuse, Indiana. The winner of this event will join the 14 other qualified anglers representing the Hoosier States kayak bass fishing clubs, Indiana Kayak Angler (IKA), Southern Indiana Yak Anglers Klub (SIYAK), Grass Root Bass Yakin - IN (GRBY), and the KBF Challenge Series. The 14 anglers who have already qualified for the 2022 HKB State Championship are also eligible for this event! Meaning, if any one of those 14 anglers wins this event, they will have blocked the rest of the field from getting in!


So the question is.... Can you beat the best of the best from the 2021 season and cash your ticket to the 2022 HKB State Championship, where you will get to fish not only for the title but also for a grand prize of over $2000 in cash and prizes from our amazing partners!?



 

APRIL 03 | CKF - BROOKVILLE LAKE
