Spring Big Bass Bash 2027

The Spring Big Bass Bash returns to Lake of the Ozarks April 17–18, 2027. One of the nation's largest amateur bass fishing tournaments, the Big Bass Bash gives weekend anglers the opportunity to compete for major cash prizes without the traditional team-weight format. Anglers can launch from locations throughout Lake of the Ozarks and bring qualifying bass to official weigh-in stations around the Lake. The tournament also traditionally features hourly payouts, youth opportunities and a Sunday awards celebration. Complete 2027 prize amounts, registration details and weigh-in locations will be announced by Midwest Fishing Tournaments.
