Here is just some of what you get when you sign up for the WON Big Bear Troutfest:

1) Each person that signs up for the 2022 Big Bear Troutfest will have their angler number added to the raffle bin for a chance to win prize packages. On Sunday, October 2nd at the end of the awards program we will raffle tons of prizes and awards the TOP 5 in each category.

2) Trophies and merchandise will be awarded to the top five winners in each of the following categories: Adult Male, Adult Female, Kids Division Male (14 and under) and Kids Division Female (14 and under). This event is perfect for the entire family, and we have prizes and levels so that anyone can win!

3) A Blind Bogey Contest in which participants can win cash. 10 random weights will be chosen for each days combined weight. If your daily weight is closest to, but not over the pre-determined Blind Bogey weight, you win your share of the money pooled for that day. All anglers that have signed up will be eligible for the cash that will be awarded as part of the Blind Bogey Contest.

4) Of course, the fishing should be great at Big Bear Lake, and as always, WON stocks thousands of dollars worth of trout in the lake prior to the event, with the help of the Big Bear Municipal Water District.

This year, as in the past, this event will be limited to only 600 entries and it does fill up fast, so don’t delay on getting in on this one. For more information on the 17th annual Western Outdoor News Big Bear Lake TroutfesT call TD Billy Egan (949) 366-0248.
