The 2026 B.A.S.S. Nation Regional Championship visits the Mississippi River out of La Crosse, Wis., May 8-10, offering unique and plentiful fishing options.  Anglers will navigate backwaters, wing dams and current-driven main-river channels, where shallow-water power fishing and adaptability are often the keys to success.

Through the B.A.S.S. Nation program, grass-roots anglers have the opportunity to advance from their local clubs to regional championships, then to the Mercury B.A.S.S. Nation Championship presented by Lowrance. From there, top performers can earn a berth in the Progressive Bassmaster Elite Series and the legendary Bassmaster Classic, proving that the dream of going “from the club to the Classic” is alive and well in 2026.
