Pickwick Lake will be Home to the Second Annual Minn Kota & Humminbird Owners Tournament | Bass Angler Magazine
RACINE, Wis. (Jan. 5, 2024) –– For years anglers have long trusted Minn Kota and Humminbird gear to enhance their success on the water. This year, we’re bringing these anglers together for an exciting big bass competition on the storied Pickwick Lake in Tennessee. Mark your calendars for the Second Annual Minn Kota and Humminbird Owners Tournament, taking place at Pickwick Landing State Park on May 30th to June 1st, 2024.
The 2023 Minn Kota & Humminbird Owner’s tournament paid out over $150,000 in cash and prizes with 50% of the anglers participating in the tournament either receiving a prize or cash payout during the two day competition. Building off the success of last year’s event, the 2024 tournament is poised to be even bigger and better adding even more cash and prizes along with a third day of competition.
The tournament is open to any amateur* boat captain with at least one Minn Kota or Humminbird product installed on their vessel. Co-anglers without these products can participate. The 1st place finisher will receive a grand prize of $50,000, with a total of over $180,000 in cash and prizes paid out to the entire field during the event. Additionally, those placing in the top 5 overall will have a chance to win Minn Kota and Humminbird products, and other exciting prizes.
Over the span of the three days of competition, anglers have the flexibility to compete in one, two, or all three days of competition, vying for hourly prizes. This big bass tournament showcases seven hourly weigh-ins daily, providing anglers of all skill levels with multiple opportunities to secure top 10 cash and merchandise prizes by catching the biggest fish every hour.
