The Minnesota Bassheads
We are a bunch of bass fishing fanatics based in Minnesota.
We have a highly active community on Facebook where we discuss largemouth and smallmouth bass fishing gear, tackle, techniques, and what’s working on our local fisheries.
Every September we host a 50 team tournament called the Battle of the BassHeads. Please view the tournament page for more information.
