THE 2025 BOUNDARY BATTLE 


Welcome to the 2025 Scheels Boundary Battle Catfish Tournament.  This is our 11th year based on the Mighty Red River of the North in Grand Forks, North Dakota and East Grand Fork, Minnesota.  It will be held June 27th and 28th, 2025 and will be limited to 50 boats.  This tournament has a twist in that it is two days long and has a different stretch of river to fish each day.  Based on 50 boats there will be $9,500 in prize money.

Friday June 27th, all boats will weigh in at the Whopper John Little (North Landing) in Grand Forks and Saturday, June 28th all boats will weigh in at LaFave Park in East Grand Forks.  

This will be a three (3) fish tournament in which two (2) fish may be over 24" and one (1) must be under 24".  It is also a no culling tournament.  A polygraph test of one member of a randomly drawn team will be provided by True North Polygraph of Grand Forks, ND.  Subsequent tests will be administered as needed.  Please see all of the tournament rules and regulations on the rules page.
