2026 May Madness
The MAY MADNESS online muskie tournament takes place Friday, May 29th through Sunday, May 31st, and is open to EVERYONE! ALL WATER in OHIO is eligible! From the tiniest feeder creeks, to the largest reservoirs, and everything in between. If it’s Ohio water, it’s eligible for this event!
So how does this statewide online tournament work exactly? Beginning at 6 am on Friday May 29th, through 6 PM on Sunday, May 31st, (during assigned legal daylight fishing times), you may choose ANY one, or multiple bodies of water in OHIO to fish from. In this three day points tournament, your TOP THREE muskies submitted, (30″ or longer), will earn you points. You may submit every muskie you catch, 30″ or better, and we will apply your best THREE to your final score. Fish must be photographed on a bump board with identifier code clearly visible, and then submitted to tournament director (TD) via text no later than 6:30 PM on Sunday. The identifier code, and TD text number will be released on Thursday evening before the start of legal fishing on Friday. Winners will be announced the following Monday morning after all fish submissions are reviewed and scored by our judges. All top three anglers with the most points at the end of legal fishing time will be awarded trophies and brand new muskie baits at our awards banquet.
