TOURNAMENTS
Tournaments are an exciting part of the Becker High School Bass Team !
LOCAL TOURNAMENTS:
- As a team we put on our own local tournaments in the summer. These are fun tournaments with great prizes. These tournaments are to give everyone on the team a competitive, on the water, fun tournament experience. We have live weigh ins that we encourage family members to attend.
** The coaches will help place you with boat captains and team mates for these tournaments.**
** We want all kids to participate in these tournaments if possible**
** Becker Bass Team Pays for Everything**
FUNDRAISING TOURNAMENTS:
- The Becker Bass Team gets invited to participate in some fundraising tournaments. These are great tournaments to fish with and are typically not quite as serious and a fun time to be part of. You amy be able to fish with family members and overall are a great introduction to tournament fishing. We want to show support during these fundraising tournaments.
** We encourage students to raise the amount of money required to fish the tournament and our Becker High School Bass Team will match the registration fee as a donation to the tournament. **
** Students are responsible for Registration / Boat / Captain / Travel Costs / Partners **
TRAVEL TOURNAMENTS - SATT / TBF / FLW / Nationals / Worlds
- As a competitive High School Team we also participate in State and National Tournaments.
These tournaments are the "next level" fishing. If you had to compare against other sports, this is at a highly competitive "Varsity" level of competition. We want our members to have participated and be prepared by fishing our local tournaments prior to participating at this level.
** Bass Team Will Pay For Tournament Entry Fees **
** Students are responsible for Registration / Boat / Captain / Travel Costs / Partners **
If you are need of a Coach / Boat Captain for any of the Travel Tournaments please complete the Coach/Captain Request sheet below and submit to Coach Dusty. The Coach Committee will make a determination if we can support, will decide on a coach and will have discussions with the parents so all details are worked out prior to the tournament registration. This IS NOT on a first come first serve basis. We only guarantee Coaches/Captains for the Local Bass Team Tourneys.

MN Fishing Challenge Host Al Lindner knows catching fish during a tournament is important. He also knows that those who participate in the annual MN Fishing Challenge are fishing because they are saving lives. "This is a fun event because contestants catch fish on Gull Lake at the best time while raising funds for people who are facing alcohol and drug addictions," Lindner said, "I strongly believe we can make a difference by raising funds for MN Adult and Teen Challenge. I know it positively impacts boys, girls, men, women, and their families."
The Minnesota Fishing Challenge takes place on Gull Lake, the first Saturday in June. Teams fish for the species they love (or whatever bites). Divisions are bass, walleye, pike, panfish, and the mixed bag division. Team may only weigh in fish in one division; declared at weigh-in. All ages welcome! All skill levels welcome!
