Sponsored in part by the Allegheny National Forest Visitors Bureau, The Willow Creek Sportsman’s Club hosts the Kinzua Cup Walleye Fishing Tournament each year.

The Kinzua Cup is typically held the second or third weekend in May. The tournament includes a mandatory rules meeting on Friday, Big Fish weigh-in on Saturday, and the Main Event on Sunday.

The Kinzua Cup originated in 2022 with 42 registered boats. In 2024, we increased the number of registered boats to 60! 2025 was a unique year and anglers only fished the Pennsylvania waters. We had 40 boats in 2025 and look to increase in 2026. The 2026 Kinzua Cup Fishing Tournament is scheduled for:

Friday, May 15, 2026: Mandatory Rules Meeting

Saturday, May 16, 2026": Big Fish Saturday

Sunday, May 17, 2026: Main Fishing Event
