Midwest Fish Tournaments Hosts the 2012 Fall Lake of the Ozarks Big Bass Bash on October 6th and 7th, with a $200,000 Cash Payout

    HIGH RIDGE, MO, September 06, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Don't miss this year's premiere amateur bass fishing tournament, the 2012 Fall Lake of the Ozarks Big Bass Bash, which will be held on October 6th and 7th. Over 200 places will be paid out throughout the weekend, totaling more than $200,000 in cash. Catch the biggest bass of the weekend and walk away with an astounding $61,500 in cash. The Big Bass Bash is for amateurs only. Its unique format allows the weekend angler a chance to win big money like the professionals. Unlike most fishing tournaments which have a team arrangement where prizes are based on total weight, the Big Bass Bash format is distinctive in that it only takes ONE angler just ONE big bass to win!

The top 3 heaviest bass of the weekend will win these cash prizes; 1st Place Overall - $60,000 - 2nd Place Overall - $20,000 - 3rd Place overall - $10,000. In addition to the 3 overall payouts, there will be over $94,720 in guaranteed cash prizes for the 25 largest bass caught during each bi-hourly weigh-in period, for a total of 200 bi-hourly payouts. There is also a children's division for kids 12 and younger, and a $1,000 bonus for the lady who hauls in the biggest bass.

There are numerous ways to win even more money: Early Bird Bonus: All anglers that enter by September 24, 2012 will be eligible to win one of twelve $500 cash prizes. Exact Weight Awards: EVERY angler that brings in a bass weighing exactly 3.00 lbs. and/or 4.00 lbs. will win $500. T-shirt bonus: If you have an official t-shirt in your possession when you weigh-in and your bass drops to 26th place in any of the bi-hourly weigh-ins, you will win $125!
