Upon establishing the American Catfishing Association, prioritizing acknowledgment for those who have positively impacted the sport became a key goal. The ACA Hall of Fame serves as a platform to express appreciation for individuals who have made significant strides and continue to lead in the field.

All nominations will undergo thorough evaluation by current members of the ACA Hall of Fame. Following a careful review of each nominee's merits, the Hall of Fame Induction Committee, a committee made up of current Hall of Fame members will select two individuals to be honored as the next ACA Hall of Fame members.
