New-format fishing featured in BASSfest competition next week
June 11-15 in Dayton, Tenn., BASSfest will be the latest innovation in pro fishing. Part competition, part festival, the five-day event will feature 140 of the best anglers in the game.

Not the finish I was looking for
My expectations were high, but now I’m sitting here writing this blog knowing this tournament was a decision-disaster after a 50th-place finish.
