Why Fish With NBW?
National Bass West is a competitive bass fishing experience that is enjoyable for all anglers. NO MEMBERSHIP FEES! We offer easy online registration to avoid standing in line and an All - In simple to understand entry. We have two divisions. The Team Pro division is for experienced anglers that want to compete at the top level and benefit from larger cash payouts. The Team Sportsman division is for weekend worrier anglers that want to have fun and compete on a lower scale. The Sportsman division is monitored and only teams that have won less than $2,000 in the last 24 months combined are eligible to compete in the division. Trophies will be presented to the top-3 finishers in each division as well as the big bass winner. Cash payback will be based on a 1/5 ratio in the Team Pro Division and 1/4 in the Team Sportsman Division. We will also payback the top-3 big bass in each division as well. Because of our generous sponsorship partners we will be giving away products via a free raffle drawing at every event, so make sure you stick around! The 2025 schedule includes four regions consisting of a six tournament series within each region. Each region has an angler of the year points race and the top finishing team will each receive a custom Silver, Copper, Bronze belt buckle. All teams that fish a minimum of five tournaments in any region will qualify for the Tournament Of Champions, a two day event in September on Lake Havasu. We look forward to seeing you at the National Bass West tournaments in 2025.
