AUBURN, Ala. (August 21, 2024) – The Logan Parks Fishing Foundation is thrilled to announce the 2024 Nitro Boats NSANE Tournament, presented by Abu Garcia.
This tournament is open to 150 teams, each consisting of one high school and one college angler, and is scheduled for Oct. 6 on Lake Martin in Auburn, Ala.
Building on the electrifying success of last year’s CHAOS event, this year’s NSANE Tournament — short for “National Student Angler Network Events” — will feature the same groundbreaking format that captivated participants and fans in ways never seen before.
“Our NSANE format is expanding the definition of what a bass fishing tournament can be,” Logan Parks said. “By combining an innovative, high-energy format with exciting new elements, we are setting a new standard for bass fishing tournaments and transforming how these tournaments are experienced by anglers and fans alike.”
This year’s event promises to be an unforgettable experience, featuring a dynamic blend of competition, exclusive activities and unparalleled opportunities for student anglers from across the nation.
