2025 Bay City Bass Fishing Series

Get Hooked on the Action: The 2025 Bay City Bass Fishing Series

The excitement is reeling in this summer as Bay City, Michigan welcomes the Major League Fishing Bass Pro Tournament from Thursday, August 7 to Sunday, August 10, 2025! With over $650,000 in prize money on the line for competing teams, this premier event celebrates both competitive angling and the unmatched natural beauty of the Saginaw Bay and river system.

Brought to you in partnership with Go Great Lakes Bay and the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce Foundation, the 2025 Bay City Bass Fishing Series is more than just a tournament—it's a community celebration. From the opening press conference and kickoff meeting, to the high-energy Fan Watch Party at Wenonah Park on Saturday and Sunday, as well as food trucks and a beer garden, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Sponsors will also have the exclusive opportunity to meet the pros during the Angler Meet & Greet Reception and fans will be able to celebrate their achievements at the awards presentation.
