KQTV J&B Outdoors Fishing Photo Contest: How Voting Works & How to Win

What is the KQTV J&B Outdoors Fishing Photo Contest and who runs it?

The KQTV J&B Outdoors Fishing Photo Contest is a photo voting promotion run by KQTV, a television station located in St. Joseph, Missouri. Its title signals a fishing and outdoors theme, and the photo format asks supporters to pick entries through a public vote instead of a panel decision. KQTV is the sponsor named on the listing, and Second Street is the platform that hosts the ballot, so the vote is reached through that platform's web page.

The program stands apart from a general station promotion in one clear way. The organizer is a local broadcaster, not a magazine or newspaper, and the market is St. Joseph within the state of Missouri. Readers who search for the program by name will find its sponsor, platform and market in the table below, and the rest of this guide explains what those facts do and do not tell a supporter.

The vertical the site assigns is best-of, which groups this program with the other Missouri ballots covered here. That grouping describes the category of the page only. It says nothing about how the votes are counted, which the organizer's own listing governs.

When did the KQTV J&B Outdoors Fishing Photo Contest run and will it return?

The Second Street listing shows a single edition, held in 2025, with voting open from June 17 through July 15, 2025. The listing now reads as closed, so no supporter can cast a ballot in that edition today. These platform dates are the only dated facts available for this program, and every other date on this page depends on them.

Because the program has a single confirmed edition, its history is short, and the platform offers no earlier run to compare against. Any later ballot would need its own dates read from the platform page rather than assumed from this one.

This is the first confirmed edition; whether it returns next year is not yet published; confirm on the live ballot each cycle.

No winner names or category results are published for the 2025 edition in this guide.

How does a supporter vote in this program today?

Voting takes place on the Second Street platform, where KQTV hosts the photo voting promotion. Results on a ballot like this one come from public votes rather than a jury, a panel or an editor. Those are the terms the listing gives, and they are the only voting mechanic stated with confidence here.

Because the window has closed, the practical steps are about reading the platform page rather than casting a vote. A supporter who wants to check a later ballot should open the platform page, read the status line and then look at the entry rules before doing anything else. Nothing in the program's details states whether voting requires an account, a phone number or a per-person limit, so those details must be read on the live page itself.

Visitors who arrive from a search for this program's name land on the same platform page as any other reader, so that page is the reference point for every step. Legal questions about paying for votes are covered in whether buying votes is legal.

How does this ballot sit beside other Missouri best-of contests?

Several other Missouri best-of ballots sit beside this one in the guide, and each has its own organizer and platform details.

The most visible difference is the organizer. KQTV is a television station, while several siblings carry magazine or newspaper names, such as A-List St. Louis Magazine and Feast Magazine FEAST 50. A reader comparing them should treat each organizer's own rules as the governing text, since one ballot's rules do not carry over to another.

KQTV's Second Street page also lists sweepstakes and a photo gallery promotion. Neither of those is a public vote on this ballot, so a reader searching for this program should not confuse the giveaways or the gallery with the voting promotion covered here.

How can a supporter strengthen support for this program?

For this program, timing decides the answer. The only edition has closed, so there is no open ballot in which to add support today, and any later push would start from whatever rules a new ballot publishes. The program's details do not cover outside help, so nothing on this page says whether sharing, sponsors or paid services are allowed.

General approaches to reaching voters are described in the guide to getting more votes online. Readers who want paid options can review the award votes page, which describes what a purchase involves without promising any result. Whichever route a supporter takes, the organizer's ballot rules decide what counts, and no placing is promised by this page. A supporter planning for a later ballot should read those rules as they are printed on that ballot, not as they appeared in 2025.
