Freshwater fishing tournaments
Anybody looking to test their freshwater fishing skills against others can choose to enter a freshwater fishing tournament. Prizes are generally awarded based on the weight or length of the fish caught, which means having true expertise can reap real rewards.
Both catch and release and weigh-in type tournaments are held, with competitors using particular techniques and equipment to target specific types of fish that are likely to secure them success.
Many tournaments have specific rules and regulations to ensure fair play, as well as assuring that local fish populations are protected and maintained.
Freshwater fishing tournaments are a great way to enjoy healthy competition, while also bringing together like-minded people through a shared love of this activity.
On the professional level there are several major tournaments that are enjoyable for both the competitors and spectators including the Super Bowl of bass fishing the Bassmaster Classic, RedCrest, and the Black Bass World Championships where the US Team competed against other countries.
