The South Dakota Governor’s Bass Cup isn’t just a tournament—it’s the ultimate bass showdown. Competitors descend on Lake Oahe in early June, when bass are hitting their peak activity—on beds, pre-spawn staging areas, or post-spawn zones—making every decision, cast, and lure choice critical.
Every cast counts. Every run matters. The Bass Cup rewards anglers who can read structure, adapt to changing conditions, and strike at the perfect moment. This is fast-paced, high-stakes competition at its finest.

This isn’t just a tournament—it’s a battle for bragging rights, big fish, and the title of the ultimate fall angler.
The Brawl blends skill, strategy, and sheer grit as competitors chase walleye in fast-changing conditions. From crisp fall mornings to late-day grind, this event tests every angler’s mettle.

The Big Stone Bass Open is a true thinking-angler’s tournament. Set on the narrow, structure-rich waters of Lake Big Stone, this event rewards precision, patience, and smart water management. There’s nowhere to hide on Big Stone—every move counts, and every mistake shows up fast.
This is a grinder’s event. Boat positioning, lure selection, and timing separate the top anglers from the rest in a fishery where bass are accessible, but far from easy.
Note: Price is final and includes signup and processing fee.

If you’re looking to test your skills on a stage that truly matters, this is where you belong."
