There are additional cash prizes for the first 15 places, including both small and largemouth bass categories, based on at least 90 pre-registered teams participating.
This all-day event is open to anglers of any ability. Experience bass fishing at its best and the reason why Pro Bass Angler Kevin VanDam calls Lake Champlain his favorite lake. So hook up with a partner and head out to the Malletts Bay Boat Launch on September 2nd to try your luck.

"Every year we see huge fish, and lots of them. This tournament really highlights the best of what Lake Champlain has to offer. And with a low entry fee and $3000 guaranteed to the first place boat, this isn't one you can afford to miss!"
Entry fee prior to noon on September 1st is $150 per team or $200 on the day of the event. Take-off times will be determined in the order entries are received. Entries received on the same day will be randomly ordered from among that day's entries. Anglers may pre-fish up to midnight on Saturday, September 1st.
