    Best place to find local tournaments?

    Hey guys! I was wondering where I can find some local derbies to fish? Haven’t seen much on Facebook this year. Looking for st. Croix, Polk and surrounding counties (western/ north west wi) or even the metro area. Thanks!

    Not sure about Wisconsin but Minnesota DNR post ever tournament that applies for a permit with the directors/associations for the year on their website. It’s not going to have the small Wednesday night bragging rights but it’s pretty accurate.

    I run the Spooner Bass League and our schedule is posted on our Facebook Page. Also do a search on Facebook for Thursday Night Bass League out of Rice Lake.

    All permitted tournaments are on here: https://cida.usgs.gov/wdnr/apex/f?p=...calendar_query

    Search the counties you fish and fish away. FYI there are “trash fish” tourneys listed on there as well ie muskies so you have to sift through to find bass ones.

    Lol I figured that would get a rise out of someone. I personally like muskies and fish for them a lot every fall.
