This two-person tournament is open to anyone. Cost to enter is $100 plus $10 for the Big Bass pot per team. Fishermen are encouraged to bring young fishermen (16 years and younger) as their partners, and all young fishermen will be recognized. At least the top five places will receive cash prizes. A portion of the proceeds goes to Gainesville High School FBLA and FFA chapters.

Don’t miss a chance to have your boat blessed for the season. The Blessing will take place at 2 p.m. on the lake. (Time and location subject to change based on weather.) Join us afterward at the Lake Bums Brew Co. for live music starting at 4 p.m. and a fish fry fundraiser starting around 5 p.m. Proceeds from the fish fry go to the Pontiac Firework Fund. Buy a commemorative Blessing of the Fleet T-shirt and help us raise money for the Pontiac Fireworks on Labor Day weekend. We hope to see you there!
