Cajun Bowfishing will host its 5th annual Cajun 8 Limited Bowfishing Tournament Saturday, August 10 through Sunday, August 11 at Angel Mounds State Historic Site in Evansville, Indiana. With a maximum entry of 80 teams, the tournament sold out weeks ahead of the tournament start date.
“Our Cajun 8 Tournament is known for being one of the best run bowfishing tournaments around, and I think that has a lot to do with why we’ve already reached our 80 boat limit,” said Bear Archery General Manager Dave Parker. “Not to mention, the winning team will take home $10,000 and potentially up to an additional $2,000 in Cajun bonus money. That’s not bad for a weekend of bowfishing.”
The Cajun bonus money is given to the top three finishers’ team members who shoot Cajun equipment during the tournament. The bonus is based on $250 per bow, up to four bows and $250 per reel, up to four reels for $2,000 maximum.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the top finishing teams:
- 1ST - $10,000 (+$2K Cajun Bonus)
- 2ND - $5,000 (+$2K Cajun Bonus)
- 3RD - $3,000 (+$2K Cajun Bonus)
- 4TH - $2,000
- 5TH - $1,250
- 6TH - $750
- 7TH - $600
- 8TH - $400
Additional prizes will be awarded to teams with the heaviest fish in five categories: Heaviest Asian Carp, Heaviest Grass Carp, Heaviest Buffalo Carp, Heaviest Common Carp, and Heaviest Gar. Prizes will include a Bear Divergent compound bow from Bear Archery, Trophy Ridge accessory package, wheels from Discount Tires and much more.
Although registration is closed, spectators are invited to join in the fun on Saturday, August 11 and Sunday, August 11 at Angel Mounds State Historic Site in Evansville, Indiana. Guests can enjoy free food and games. Exhibiting vendors will include Tactacam Action Cameras and Andalusia Marine and Power Sports.
