The Better Half Tour, Ohio’s longest running and most popular male/female team bass tournament trail, has released its schedule for 2023. Teams will fish for the Fisherman’s Central sponsored Ohio Total Weight Championship, which accumulates the total of all Ohio tournaments to win free entry into the following year’s events and a $250 gift card from Fisherman’s Central. Sponsor Vic’s Sports Center will add $200 Bass Cash to each tournament for the top finisher fishing in a boat purchased from them. A new “marathon ” format will be introduced for the Weekend Getaway, with 3 periods of fishing. Prizes will be awarded each period as well as for overall total weight of weighed fish.
