FLIPPIN, Ark. (March 2005) – With the all-time highest contingency payouts in tournament fishing, the legendary Ranger Cup program continues to be the bellwether. In 2005, the program has added more qualified events, more money, and more opportunity for Ranger anglers to take home even larger winnings. The popular program currently covers literally hundreds of national, regional, and grass roots fishing events.
According to Ranger Promotions Coordinator, Scott Arms, “To date, more than $1.8 million has been paid out in bonus money to Ranger owner/anglers who have participated in Ranger Cup. That’s more than the awards of all of the other competitive programs combined and we’re pleased to continue to make such a strong commitment to our family of anglers.”
With so much opportunity at numerous competitive levels, Ranger boat owners are encouraged to sign up now to make the most of every event. Ranger Cup payouts are available for the following tournament trails: The Ranger Cup (includes Wal-Mart FLW Tour and Bassmaster Tour events), EverStart Series, B.A.S.S. Federation, Wal-Mart Bass Fishing League (BFL), B.A.S.S. Opens, Walleye Cup (includes selected FLW Walleye and PWT events), Texas Tournament Trail, MWC and many other regional and grass roots circuits.
To qualify for Ranger Cup competition, anglers must own a Ranger boat, fish from a Ranger in qualifying tournaments, meet clothing and decal display requirements, and return a completed official registration form. To be eligible for an additional 50 percent Yamaha bonus payout, Ranger Cup participants must also fish from a Ranger boat powered by a Yamaha outboard at all qualifying tournaments. The official registration must indicate the serial number of the engine to qualify for the bonus.
