The $250,000 Bash is coming to Lake of the Ozarks on October 5-6.
Don't miss one of the largest Big Bass tournaments in the country, the Lake of the Ozarks Fall Big Bass Bash at Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks, set for October 5-6, 2019.
This event will pay out an astounding $250,000 in cash, including $100,000 to the lucky angler who catches the heaviest bass of the tournament.
HERE'S HOW THE EVENT WORKS:
OFFICIAL START: First cast will be 7am each day of the tournament. Anglers can be on the water prior to the official start time, but no casting until 7am.
WEIGHING IN: There will be 5 weigh-in stations for anglers to access throughout the event. The weigh-in stations are PB2, Red Oak Resort, Alhonna Resort, Point Randall Resort, and Ivy Bend Resort. Visit this link for a map of weigh-in locations.
There will be 4 time slots each day of the tournament. The time slots are (7am-9am) (9am-11am) (11am-1pm) (1pm-3pm).
EXAMPLE WEIGH-IN: Say you catch one at 7:40am. You can then take your bass to one of our weigh-in stations, put water and your bass in your bag, and take it up to the official Big Bass Bash scales. Once you've weighed in and received your receipt, you can go back out and continue fishing, but you cannot weigh another bass in until the next time slot starts. Each Angler Can Weigh One Fish Per Time Slot.
PAYOUTS: The Big Bass Bash will pay 35 places to the 35 heaviest bass weighed in during each time slot, totaling 280 bi-hourly payouts throughout the event. The 4 heaviest bass weighed in during the event will win the top overall cash prizes, which are (1st: $100,000, 2nd: $20,000, 3rd: $10,000, 4th: $5,000)
