For the top finisher in the pro-class we will have a hand-carved trophy and your name will go on a plaque to be proudly displayed in the Reno Orvis store. The top amateur receives a trophy and the Hydros rod.

For a $50 donation you get a shot at these great prizes, plus a dinner provided by Outback Steakhouse and drinks! As always, all of the proceeds from this tournament will go right back into local conservation efforts courtesy of the new UNR American Fisheries Society student subunit. It's a no lose situation.

Also new for this year is the fact that we will open it up to the whole Nevada side of the river after noon on the tournament day. Fish your randomly assigned section from the reservation to the state line until noon and then fish your own secret spot until 5 p.m.. Then come enjoy food and drinks with the rest of the group at the Reno Orvis store.
