Do you think you have what it takes to compete in a bass tournament on Lake Michigan?

Here’s your chance to win big bucks.

Dennis Banik announces the South Shore Bass Open set for August 3-4 with a launch at the Hammond, Ind. Marina.

Banik said the payout is based upon number of entries and sponsorships, but it has the potential for a $30,000 first-place prize with 150 two-man teams entered. In addition, several charity organizations will benefit from the event.

Entry fee before May 1 is $450 and $500 thereafter.

If you have any questions, contact Banik at 219-512-2924 or email southshorebassopen@gmail.com.
