Tournaments




Each year, the Fishing Committee hosts tournaments on Sage Lake, including a “rough fish” tournament to harvest dogfish, bullheads, and carp, and a summer sport fish tournament targeting bass, pike, and panfish. Through funds from the SLA, our sponsors and partners, our tournaments have paid out 1,000s of dollars to participating anglers. The committee plans to add a pike derby for harvesting undersized northern pike and a winter ice fishing tournament to their schedule for the 2023-2024 season.
