Welcome to the
database for the Fishing Headquarters Tournament
Circuit. This section has been created to
provide anglers with the latest news regarding
our seasonal series of tournaments.
For the 2008
fishing season, a NEW addition has been
implemented to the Fishing Headquarters
Tournament Circuit - Angler of the Year.
This award has been added for the sole purpose
of “Bragging Rights”, headlining the
participating tournament angler who accumulates
the most points within the circuit of our five

How Each
Tournament
Works |
First, and before
any fishing can be done, anglers must register
for each tournament they are interested in
participating in. In order to register, anglers
must pay attention to the forums for updates and
registration information. In addition, anglers
must be registered members to our discussion
forums as these events are headquartered from
our "specie-specific" forums. Once the angler is
registered and joins the usergroup that
determines who is officially registered for the
tournament, he may begin fishing once tournament
begins.
The winner of each
tournament wins by most cumulative points. This
is based on a point scale which is set in value
corresponding to the particular fish species you
catch, and whether your catches exceed size
limits. Certain fish species are designated
greater point values than others. These values
are determined by many factors which include
species size, abundance, population dispersals,
and the level of skill needed to catch them.
Bonus points may be awarded to fish who exceed
the “Big-Fish” size limits established for the
particular species.
In each tournament, the participant is able to
submit and enter as many catches as possible as
long as the catch meets tournament
qualifications such as size limits and
regulations.
Because we have five (5) tournaments set for
2008, the anglers who come away with at least
one singe point from all 5 tournaments combined
are eligible be in the running for our Angler of
the Year award. In previous tournaments, some
registered participants never bothered to
participate in a single tournament, thus they
never placed in the standings. Since anyone who
places in the standings in at least one
tournament becomes eligible for the Angler of
the Year Award, anglers may find additional
motivation to participate more in these website
sanctioned events.
It is imperative to
recognize the winning angler’s achievements, and
to provide an award on behalf of his
participation and first place finish in the
final season standings.
Like ALL website contests and tournaments,
prizes will be awarded to the winner of 2008 HQ
Angler of the Year. These prizes will consist of
prize packs and products provided by website
sponsors. In addition, other items may be thrown
into the award such as baits and fishing
accessories. Finally, winner will be featured
and headlined on our website’s homepage, and
article will be written commemorating and
summarizing his angling season.

Standings |
The person with
most cumulative
points by the
end of the year
in the Fishing
Headquarters
Tournament
Series will be
named "Angler of
the Year". The
2008 series will
feature five
tournaments and
the angler with
the most total
points by series
end will be
determined
winner.
In order to
qualify for this
prestigious
honor, an angler
needs at least
one single
point. This
point can be
attained in any
tournament the
angler decides
to participate
in. If the
angler wants to
have a shot at
winning our
Angler of the
Year prize,
participation in
as many possible
tournaments is
KEY! Obviously,
you must also go
fishing too!
