NAPRA has had hundreds of sponsors, anglers, fans, and colleagues that have made us what we are today. Back in 2018 we started to honor those that have helped us along the way with the start of our River of Honor. In 2021 we will induct a new field of recipients.
Here are the finalists for 2021. NAPRA members will select 1 recipient with an additional honoree by NAPRA CEO Pete Ziehler.
