Skeeter’s 31st annual bass tournament to be held June 7-8 on Lake Fork in Texas
Skeeter Boats, a subsidiary of Yamaha Motor Corp, will host the 31st annual Skeeter Owners Bass Tournament on Lake Fork, Texas, June 7–8.
Anglers will compete for more than $250,000 in cash and prizes in an individual Big Bass tournament format. Each angler may weigh in one fish per hour, with prizes awarded to the top 10 fish each hour, giving anglers 130 chances to win.
“This tournament is where the Skeeter family comes together,” says Chris Brown, brand marketing manager for Skeeter Boats.
“It’s about more than big bass, it’s about celebrating our shared love for fishing, family, and the outdoors.” — Brown
The angler who catches the biggest bass overall will win a 2025 Skeeter FXR20 Apex Edition with a Yamaha VMAX SHO 250 outboard. The largest bass under the slot limit wins a 2025 Yamaha Viking VI EPS Ranch side-by-side.
During Friday’s check-in and registration, anglers will have the opportunity to meet and receive autographs from some of the top names in professional bass fishing including Skeeter/Yamaha Pro Anglers Easton Fothergill, Jason Christie, Brandon Palaniuk, Scott Canterbury, Bryant Smith, Mark Menendez, Cliff Pace, John Garrett, Ray Hanselman, Carl Jocumsen, Drew Cook, Justin Atkins and Tyler Williams.
The entry fee is $150 per person and covers both days of competition if submitted by May 31. Registration forms submitted after this deadline will include an additional $20 on-site registration fee. Limited Edition TFO rods are available for purchase onsite or with online registration, but quantities are limited.
In addition to hourly payouts, the tournament will feature several special divisions to recognize standout performances across a range of groups.
