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 inducted all time NAPRA career wins and money earner Karl Halley into the Hall of Fame. Way to go Karl!
