THE PREMIER KAYAK BASS FISHING RESOURCE IN THE HOOSIER STATE
TURKEY BOWL & FOOD DRIVE
FISH | COMPETE | GIVE
IT'S ABOUT MORE
The HKB Turkey Bowl is about so much more than a fishing tournament. It's about community and giving back.
Each Fall, Anglers from across the Hoosier State and beyond gather in one location to celebrate the kayak fishing community, here in Indiana, and give back to those less fortunate through donations to our Food Drive.
All food and monetary donations go directly to local families in need of help during the Holiday Season.
