MN B.A.S.S. Nation Tournament of Champions – 50th Anniversary
Arrowwood Resort & Conference Center will welcome more than 200 competitive fishing participants and their families for the 50th Annual 2026 Minnesota B.A.S.S. Nation Tournament of Champions, August 5-7, on the Le Homme Dieu chain of lakes. Everyone is welcome to come and watch the excitement and check out the fish brought in by this group of anglers.
Minnesota B.A.S.S. Nation (MNBN) is a member of the B.A.S.S. Nation, a global network of locally organized clubs whose members participate in and support a range of activities, including tournaments, conservation initiatives, and youth programs. One competitor, who qualifies through a rigorous series of local and regional tournaments and then the national championship, advances to bass fishing’s biggest stage, the Bassmaster Classic.
Anglers participating in this 3-day event have qualified through their local clubs to earn their spots. The first 2 days of the tournament will be fished by the full field of approximately 100 boats (200 anglers). Day 3 will be the top 25 boaters and non-boaters fishing for their spots in the Regionals and Nationals competitions.
The statewide Tournament of Champions partners with a local nonprofit each year to support and raise funds, with the annual donation ranging from $2,000 – $4,300. On Friday, August 7, members of the Minnesota B.A.S.S. Nation will present the funds raised during the awards ceremony.

Bring your own project or just come and learn! This is a time to relax, enjoy a nice tea or coffee, hang out with others, learn from each other, and make some progress on that project that you’ve been dreaming of finishing (or even starting!).
