Points System:

The Angler of the Year title is given to the most dedicated, hard working angler who we think best represents what the Illini Bass Fishing Club represents. The Angler of the Year title is decided primarily by the points leaderboard, but the executive team will make the ultimate decision. The following events and activities will earn a certain number of points to the Angler of the Year standings. At the end of the year, the top three finishers will receive a prize for their efforts.
