Pere Marquette Expeditions fishing tournaments are designed to be fun for the whole family or just to gain bragging rights amongst friends. We pay out 100% to the top winners! With such low entry fees, what do you have to lose?
Occasionally we are asked “Why do you allow any local lake for the tournament and not just one?” The answer is that we don’t like the idea of over fishing one lake. Spreading things out helps to keep fish populations stable for other fisherman after the tournaments end.
Thank you to all the participants in our 2024 tournaments! Please stop into Pere Marquette Expeditions for your fishing needs all year long. Happy Trails!!!
