Buchanan, Tenn.- Cabela’s Collegiate Big Bass Bash will return to Kentucky Lake March 13th-15th, 2015. As the final day to register for the Cabela's Collegiate Big Bass Bash Presented by Berkley came to a close, record registration numbers were announced. Over 265 college anglers are spending their spring break at the event and are traveling from states as far away as Colorado, Michigan, and a total of twenty four states across the nation.
“It’s exciting to come back to Kentucky Lake and Paris, TN for the Cabela’s Collegiate Big Bass Bash presented by Berkley,” said Wade Middleton, the Association of Collegiate Anglers Director and President of CarecoTV. “This year’s event will be the largest that we’ve ever had in our history here. We have collegiate anglers from over twenty-four states choosing to come to Kentucky Lake and Paris, TN during their spring break and go fishing while representing their school’s bass fishing team.”
The event will be held at Paris Landing Marina at Kentucky Lake. The two day tournament will consist of eight hourly weigh-ins and will be giving away over $20,000 in prizes. We look forward to seeing all college anglers at the event, ready to compete and brave the elements.
Last year local universities Bethel and Murray State brought home two of the top three spots and are anxious to compete again. Prizes will be awarded to the ten heaviest bass weighed during each of the eight weigh-in sessions, the overall heaviest bass for each day and overall heaviest bass for the tournament. The tournament will be televised on NBC Sports Network, Pursuit Channel, World Fishing Network, and other regional networks.
“We are excited to continue to host the Cabela’s Collegiate Big Bass Bash event out of Paris Landing on Kentucky Lake,” according to David Hamilton, CEO of the Henry County Alliance. “This event draws anglers from many colleges and universities and provides an opportunity for these young anglers to experience fishing on one of the nation’s top lakes for bass fishing,” Hamilton added. Partial funding of the Cabela’s Collegiate Big Bass Bash presented by Berkley was provided by the Henry County Tourism Authority.
