2026 Lew’s Catch Challenge
Lew’s and Fishing Chaos have joined forces to bring you something the fishing world has been missing: a tournament built entirely around the angler, not the other way around.
Introducing the Lew’s Catch Challenge, open to anyone, anywhere, fishing on their own schedule, all the way through December 31, 2026.
The rules are as simple as the concept is powerful. Register once. Fish all year. Submit your best catches. That’s it. No entry fees per fish. No complicated point systems. No tournament weekends that clash with real life. The contingency format means you compete on your terms, whether you’re hitting local lakes at dawn, chasing trophy bass on a Saturday, or sneaking in a quick evening session after work.
Each month, top catches across selected species are evaluated and winners are crowned. Then the leaderboard resets, giving every angler a fresh shot at taking home premium Lew’s gear the following month.
This partnership between Fishing Chaos and Lew’s reflects something both brands have always believed: competitive fishing shouldn’t be reserved for the tournament circuit regulars. Lew’s world-class reels have been in the hands of championship anglers for decades and now that same standard of excellence is coming to the angler who simply loves to fish.
Registration is fast, free, and only happens once. After that, just do what you already do. Go fishing. Snap a photo. Submit your catch. Let the leaderboard do the rest.
