The AFTCO AOY race is continuing to tighten up as we just wrapped up our 7th event of the season, the New River Event supported by Torqeedo.
While Ewing Minor and Jaxton Orr maintained their 1st and 2nd spots, every other angler that fished the event improved their score and closed the gap! With only 2 more events left in the regular season, anything can happen!
Anglers aren’t just fishing for the top few spots and all the cash, prizes and accolades. The Top 32 not-yet- qualified also get into this year’s Tournament of Champions to compete for over $80,000 in ten paid places!
It’s not too late to see your name on this list, compete for AOY and qualify for the 2023 TOC! But opportunities are limited.
