Is anyone on here a Master Angler as defined and in accordance to the program run by KDF&W?
I would like to communicate with someone who has caught their three fish to be accepted as a member into this program for an article I am writing.
Please PM me if you (or someone you know) can help me with this. Thanks in advance.

i have 1 from a couple of years ago. SM bass, Brown trout and Rainbow trout.
Came close with 2 out of the 3 last yr my 1st yr keeping track.21.5 SM & a 35inch grass crap from my kayak.
Raincheck, are you sure taking a crap in the grass counts? ;) Good luck on catching that third one this time around then.
Troutman, would you be interested in helping me with my article? If so, please PM me.

You have to catch them in different years.
Not according to the KDF&W:
Anglers who catch three different species of trophy status are eligible for the Master Angler Award. There is no time limit in which the three different species must be caught, but each catch must be documented and registered as a trophy fish with Kentucky Fish and Wildlife since the program began in 1987.

Yes I have 4 masterangler awards the first I received in 1992, I also have won 7 of the annual awards for the largest of that particular speices. I have I believe somewhere around 50 trophy certificates the last in 1998 or 99. I haven't participated in the program since then....gotta love the big O. I actually catch bigger fish now..LOL Chuck

Got mine in 2010. Took several years but I submitted a largemouth, smallmouth, and a ky. All caught at Dale Hollow. Didn't plan it that way, just worked out. Pretty cool thing for F&W to do. Probably won't end up on my resume but the stickers look good on the boat!
Do they have a mediocre angler program I might qualify for?

If your an expert at catching shad or baitfish......would that make you a Master Baiter??
Just askin.
