Dick Hiley St. Jude Bass Classic

Wabasha is hosting the 27th annual Dick Hiley St. Jude Bass Classic Friday, May 2 - Sunday, May 4th.

This incredible, one-of-a-kind event takes place on the Mississippi River and celebrates a community of bass anglers from across the Upper Midwest who come together once a year in support of the mission of St. Jude. 

What was once a dream for so many involved in this tournament has now become a reality.

The Dick Hiley St. Jude Bass Classic surpassed the $1 million fundraising milestone in 2023, raised more than $852,000 in 2024 and raised more than $7.6 million in its lifetime.

It is the largest charity bass fishing tournament for St. Jude in the country. 

This two-day tournament features a weekend full of activities, including live weigh-ins on both Saturday and Sunday, a celebratory dinner banquet on Saturday evening featuring a St. Jude mission moment, fundraising awards and much more.
