2022 Bighorn Carp Tournament

Updated: Oct 6, 2022

WHEN: Friday the 10th of June from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

WHERE: Ok-A-Beh Marina on Bighorn Lake

The annual Bighorn Carp Tournament has a long history beginning as a guide competition put on by the fly shops. Through time the event was turned over to the Bighorn River Alliance as a fundraiser for the Bighorn River and we gladly continue the tradition. The Bighorn Angler is co-sponsoring the After Party BBQ following the tourney at 5 p.m. in Fort Smith where the winners of the tournament as well as the Adipose Boat Raffle winner will be announced.
