The Cabela's King Kat Trail is organized and facilitated by Outdoor Promotions, Inc (OPI), a company whose founders have over 40 years combined experience in promoting, directing and managing successful fishing tournaments. Together, OPI, Cabela's and several other sponsors have developed the The King Kat Tournament Trail, which has been tabbed as the "Premier Catfish Tournament Trail".
The Cabela's King Kat Tournament Trail was created to give the growing number of catfish anglers, clubs and organizations an opportunity to shine in the spotlight with the first-ever National Championship "Classic" of competitive catfish angling. This format has revolutionized the catfish angling market and has given anglers across the country an opportunity to tap into the largest purse to date in competitive catfish angling.
