Paddle the Pads 2026: Fly Fishing Bass Tournament

Paddle the Pads is back with another opportunity to get out on the water, fish with friends and win prizes. The event is organized by the Gitche Gumee Chapter of Trout Unlimited and the Arrowhead Fly Fishers.

There will be a BBQ starting at 4 p.m. after the tournament that’s available to everyone.

This is a paddle-only fly-fishing tournament. Bring a fly rod and a kayak, canoe, drift boat, raft, kick boat, SUP or anything else that floats.
