WPC 12th Edition – September 2026

Check the details and register

What an event WPC 2025 has been!
We are still filled with the emotions of unforgettable days in Hellevoetsluis: amazing participants, passionate competition, challenging fishing, and weather that tested every skill on board. The fishing was far from easy – yet the spirit on the water and on shore was outstanding. The marketplace became a true meeting place, the harbor a stage for early morning goosebump moments, and the whole town once again the perfect home for the World Predator Classic.

We believe the true spirit of the WPC lies in friendship, mutual respect, and genuine sportsmanship. Our wish is that alongside the excitement of competition, we continue to share moments of laughter, meaningful conversations, and a deep passion for boat fishing together.

And so, we now look ahead.
In September 2026, the WPC will return – strong, sharp, and more determined than ever. With a dedicated and tireless team, we will once again build our own docks, create a buzzing marketplace, and do everything possible to make WPC 2026 another world-class celebration of our sport.

We are excited to invite you – our anglers, partners, and friends – to be part of this journey again.

Let’s celebrate boat fishing together once more:
intense days of competition, nights of camaraderie, strong friendships, fair play, and unforgettable emotions.

👉 Register now for WPC 2026.
We cannot wait to welcome you back to Hellevoetsluis for another chapter of WPC history!
