When 50 of the world’s best bass anglers arrive in Hot Springs, Ark., for the 2015 Forrest Wood Cup next month, they’ll be competing for the biggest honor in bass fishing – Forrest Wood Cup champion – and the biggest winning payday in bass fishing – $500,000.

Of course, only 50 pros are eligible to compete, but thousands more fishing fans will be in Hot Springs to take in the event too. Here are some of the other activities that await them Aug. 20-23.
