20 <strong>TOP</strong> 50 // THE FASTEST GROWING <strong>SERIES</strong> IN ONTARIO<br />

twelve<br />

OUR MISSION STATEMENT<br />

Through partnership and co-operation, it is the goal<br />

of the <strong>TOP</strong>50 to promote quality recreational and<br />

competitive angling experience while preserving<br />

the fishery for future generations by employing live<br />

release. To support economic growth of our host<br />

communities, and provide charitable organizations<br />

the opportunity to raise much needed funds.<br />

The <strong>TOP</strong>50 is a “Registered” not for profit organization.<br />

Established (2002) to assist local communities/associations and<br />

provide them with an opportunity to raise much needed funds.<br />

The <strong>TOP</strong>50 is an organized series of tournaments, that provide<br />

anglers with a learning experience while competing on a professional<br />

level.<br />

Catch and release is highly promoted.<br />

Special consideration is given to youth anglers.<br />

Entry fees, rules, and paybacks are consistent throughout the series.<br />

Competitors may choose to fish one event or as many as they wish.<br />

This series has a voluntary annual fee of $100.00.<br />

Participation fee provides the angler(s) an opportunity to compete in<br />

the Provincial Classic which has an annual purse of over $30,000.<br />

Included with the <strong>TOP</strong>50 fee, anglers compete for prestigious title(s)<br />

such as angler of the Year (AOTY), Team of the Year (TOTY), and<br />

Rookie of the Year (ROTY).<br />

All of these titles come with free entries to the following season’s<br />

series, plaques and exposure on entry forms and in the Tournament<br />

angler Magazine.


<strong>TOP</strong> 50 // THE FASTEST GROWING <strong>SERIES</strong> IN ONTARIO20<br />

twelve<br />

I want to become a participant of the <strong>TOP</strong>50 pike series tournament trail.<br />

If you wish to qualify for the Provincial Classic you must prior to fishing<br />

your first qualifying event.<br />

1. Purchase a participant fee ($100)<br />

2. Fish a minimum of 2 events.<br />

3. Qualify by virtue of points in the AOTY race. (first 100 anglers)<br />

If you wish to vie for Angler of the Year (AOTY) you must.<br />

1. Be a paid participant of the <strong>TOP</strong> 50 in good standing<br />

2. Promote the <strong>TOP</strong> 50 and competitive angling<br />

3. Compete with many anglers that have paid the participation fee<br />

4. Compete with many new, paid/unpaid participants, anglers to the<br />

Top 50 Pike Tournament Series<br />

5. Attain the highest score in the AOTY standings<br />

6. Promote the <strong>TOP</strong> 50 by assisting, in the booth at shows, promo-<br />

tions and/or at tournaments (set-up, tear down, movement of<br />

equipment, stats, website etc.)<br />

7. Solicit advertising for the <strong>TOP</strong>50 (funds go directly towards Pro-<br />

vincial Classic pay back)<br />

8. Conduct oneself in a professional manner at all times.<br />

9. Promote the <strong>TOP</strong> 50 with the display of the <strong>TOP</strong> 50 logo (wearing<br />

apparel, decals, word of mouth etc.)<br />

The aforementioned criteria for Angler of the Year will replace the existing<br />

AOTY criteria. Each of the above Criteria is based on a total value<br />

of 10 with #5 being double ( 20 ). The highest scoring angler in each<br />

category will receive 10. The second highest score 9.5, the third highest<br />

score 9 and so on. Equal effort, or ties, in each category will receive an<br />

equal score. The angler with the highest total at the conclusion of the<br />

season, including the Provincial Classic, will be declared a TRUE Angler<br />

of the Year.<br />

Top 50 Directors are not eligible for this award.<br />

GOOD NEWS FOR THE ROOKIES<br />

Many of our rookie participants have not returned to compete after<br />

their rookie year. WHY ? Perhaps they found the competition to strong<br />

or where not ready to compete as a rookie. Competing against a seasoned<br />

field of anglers could prove to be an overwhelming experience,<br />

leaving the new angler with the I can’t compete against these Pros<br />

attitude. This could lead the first time (Rookie) competitors to become<br />

discouraged from future tournament competition. To avoid this scenario<br />

from happening, we shall allow all new and past rookie competitors<br />

three attempts to achieve the ROTY title. Some pre-requisites must be<br />

put in place to safe guard seasoned anglers from taking advantage of<br />

this opportunity.<br />

P<strong>RE</strong><strong>RE</strong>QUISITE FOR THE (ROOKIE <strong>OF</strong> THE YEAR) ROTY<br />

- Must be new to the <strong>TOP</strong>50 or not fished as a participant of the<br />

<strong>TOP</strong>50 for more than 3 years.<br />

- Must be a current paid participant of the <strong>TOP</strong>50.<br />

- Must promote competitive angling.<br />

- Must compete in a minimum of three (3) events per season.<br />

- Title will be decided on the best 3 finishes in the Angler of the Year<br />

standings.<br />

- An angler under the age of 19 will remain in contenders for this title<br />

until the age of 19 or until the ROTY title is achieved.<br />

In other words, all new and current anglers that have not had a paid<br />

participation fee for more than three years are eligible to compete for the<br />

ROTY title.<br />

P<strong>RE</strong><strong>RE</strong>QUISITE TO TEAM <strong>OF</strong> THE YEAR.<br />

-Must be a current paid participant of the <strong>TOP</strong>50<br />

-Must promote competitive angling<br />

-Must compete in a minimum of 5 events<br />

-Title will be decided by the highest team score in the angler of the year race.<br />

PARRY SOUND<br />

This will be the 8th annual Parry Sound Pike<br />

Tournament and the fourth one associated with the<br />

<strong>TOP</strong>50 Pike Series events. The tournament is always<br />

the first one of the year as pike season opens May 1st<br />

on Georgian Bay, a great way to start the open water<br />

season.<br />

With thousands of bays accessible from Parry<br />

Sound harbour, anglers have a shot at some of the<br />

best early season pike angling going. Combine this<br />

with the beautiful surroundings of Georgian Bay, making<br />

it a great event for the novice angler or seasoned<br />

pike anglers. All are welcome.<br />

The tournament will be held at the Big Sound<br />

Marina. This facility will provide docking for all boats<br />

for boat check in the morning of the tournament<br />

are three public boat launches situated within a short<br />

boat ride from the Big Sound facility.<br />

A donation will be made by the Parry Sound Pike<br />

Tournament to a local charity or group. This year we<br />

are hoping to see many new faces as well as a few<br />

old ones. Parry Sound is a great place to fish and<br />

boat so come out and give our tournament a try!<br />

ST. CHARLES<br />

Come one, come all, avid pike anglers and enjoy another challenging,<br />

yet fun-filled day of fishing in the abundant weed growth<br />

of the West Arm of Lake Nipissing at Victoria Lodge on June 2,<br />

2012!<br />

It is with great anticipation that the St-Charles Seniors’ Club<br />

Alidor is preparing to host their 6th annual event. We are anxious<br />

to see all you returning participants and hopefully see new anglers<br />

join in and take the opportunity to participate, rain or shine. Some<br />

of you may remember last year’s sudden but short-lived wind and<br />

rain incident at the start of the launching. However, that didn’t stop<br />

the fish from biting nor the fishermen from showing their passion; it<br />

was obvious there is no shortage of pike in our waters.<br />

This tournament has become the most important fundraiser for<br />

the Senior’s Club Alidor. Club Alidor is an incorporated non-profit<br />

organization whose mission is to ensure that the elderly and other<br />

members of our community have the opportunity to lead healthier<br />

lifestyles through social interaction, physical activities and community<br />

support initiatives. This is achieved through our weekly<br />

social and congregate dining program, a very demanding project,<br />

both financially and administratively. It requires several teams of<br />

dedicated volunteers who give indiscriminately of their time and<br />

effort in the preparation of meals and social activities, and in the<br />

administration and financial operation of the Club.<br />

We wish to thank our sponsors who so generously support<br />

through advertising and donations; they remain one of the main<br />

sources of profit for the event.<br />

Finally, we would like to thank, you the organizers and volunteers,<br />

for some very hard work collecting advertisements and<br />

donations, preparing meals, monitoring launching and measuring<br />

stations, tabulating the fishing results and promptly reporting the<br />

data. All in all, we thank you for the smooth operation of this event<br />

year after year.<br />

We wish to remind all anglers that registration starts at 5:00pm<br />

followed by an orientation meeting at Club Alidor, 43 Main St. in<br />

St-Charles (same site as last year’s) on Friday June 1st.<br />

See you at the tournament!<br />

CHELMSFORD<br />

The Chelmsford Fish and game association is<br />

a registered non-profit organization that has been<br />

incorporated since November 22nd, 1965. We receive<br />

NO funding from municipal, provincial or federal governments.<br />

What keeps us going is our membership<br />

renewals, and funds generated from our events.<br />

The CFGA is involved in many community-oriented<br />

events such as our annual ice Fishing Derby and our<br />

Summer Pike Classic Tournament. These events keep<br />

the community active during the winter as well as the<br />

summer. The Chelmsford Fish and game association<br />

focused its efforts on walleye culture and the restocking<br />

of local lakes and streams.<br />

This effort has been enhanced through the hard<br />

work of dedicated volunteers with the construction of<br />

a walleye hatchery and 2 ½ hectare ponds. Our association<br />

works hand in hand with the MNR, Laurentian<br />

University “Laurentian Fresh Water Ecology” and<br />

Collège Boréal to ensure that our projects meet and<br />

exceed all of their standards.<br />

It’s important for people to support us during our<br />

annual events because most of the money collected<br />

goes towards our hatchery/ponds. There are also the<br />

everyday costs of owning property and maintaining it.<br />

It’s not cheap to run this type of operation.<br />

Please support us by becoming a member and<br />

participating in our fishing tournaments.<br />

ELK LAKE<br />

The town of Elk lake has a fascinating historical<br />

background stretching from the fur trading days to<br />

the heady silver rush just after the turn of the century.<br />

Incorporated in 1909, the town prospered under<br />

the leadership of its famous first reeve, Jack Munroe,<br />

who was a prosper, mining engineer, famed football<br />

player, boxing star and war hero.<br />

The town of Elk lake has evolved to become a<br />

thriving tourism,lumber and mining centre. Elk lake<br />

has long been known for its friendliness and community<br />

spirit.<br />

The Elk lake Pike Bonanza is one of the longest<br />

running pike tournaments around. And with good<br />

reason with 28 miles of the Montreal river to fish there<br />

is plenty of pike to go around. Not to mention those<br />

honey holes in Mountain lake where that 40”+ Pike is<br />

hiding.<br />

In all, Elk lake has great waters, friendly people<br />

and a great facility. This makes the Elk lake Pike<br />

Bonanza a must attend tournament.<br />
