Keweenaw Bay Fishing Tournament Registration Now Open

The 2022 Keweenaw Bay Classic Fishing Tournament returns once again June 10th and 11th. Described as one of the largest fishing tournaments in the state, the Keweenaw Bay has a long history of anglers pulling out some of the largest trout and salmon Superior has to offer. Chase Palosaari volunteers to help put on the tournament, and says that they try to focus on more than just the fish. But the community and the local business who sponsor the competition.

That day, it can be pretty hectic out there. But there’s a lot of body of water to fish. As far as getting registered, we got local sign ups available at all the local fishing shops including; Northwoods Sporting Goods, Indian Country, Wilkinson General Store, and Marquette Powersports. – Chase Palosaari, Tournament Volunteer
