Sign Up For Yamaha Power Pay To Capitalize On Top Finishes and Earn Large Payouts

SAN ANTONIO, TX (October 6, 2023) – In one week, the Association of Collegiate Anglers will host its second event of the 2023-24 season.  This no-entry-fee, nationally televised major event will take place at Lake Dardanelle in Russellville, AR on October 14-15, 2023.  At this tournament, the field comprised of hundreds of the top collegiate anglers from across the nation will be eligible to participate in the Yamaha Power Pay Program!

This past summer, Yamaha Power Pay exceeded $1,000,000 in total payout awarded. Former Auburn University angler Anthony Vintson claimed Yamaha Power Pay at an Alabama Bass Team Trail event a few months ago to push the total money earned through the premier tournament contingency program over the $1,000,000 mark. “And there’s a real simple reason I wanted a Yamaha; my dad is an outboard mechanic, he owns Vintson Marine on Smith Lake, and he’ll tell you they work on Yamahas far less than any other brand,” emphasizes Vintson.

“As the Yamaha Power Pay program reaches this incredible milestone of $1 million in payouts, we would like to thank our angler customers for their loyalty to the Yamaha brand,” said Connor Megan, Pro Staff and Sponsorship Supervisor, Yamaha Marine Engine Systems. “We plan to continue the Power Pay momentum by adding more events and bigger payouts. Yamaha outboard owners enrolled in the program will have more opportunities than ever before to earn money through Power Pay!”

Here are further details on how the Yamaha Power Pay program works:
