BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — B.A.S.S. officials announced today that Logan Latuso has been disqualified and fined after failing a randomly selected screening credibility assessment administered via polygraph related to “C3. PRACTICE AND COMPETITION (ii) a. and j.” Rule C3(ii)a prohibits soliciting, gathering or intentionally receiving information from non-competitors to gain a competitive advantage. Rule C3(ii)j states that a first offense will result in tournament disqualification and up to a $10,000 fine.
According to 2025 Elite Series rules an appeal for a credibility assessment retest was requested and granted which also resulted in a failure. All Bassmaster credibility assessments undergo a quality review by a second examiner prior to confirming final results. As a result of the failed credibility assessments, Latuso’s 9th-place finish at the 2025 Lowrance Bassmaster Elite at Lake Tenkiller has been vacated. All anglers below 9th place will move up one spot.
