Messer marches into Day 1 lead at Lake Champlain

A Day 1 limit of 23 pounds, 9 ounces marches Matt Messer into the lead in Plattsburgh, NY. The weights are unbelievable with 46 bags over 20 pounds, even with windy conditions today. More wind is forecasted for tomorrow, which will keep things interesting as they battle for the Top 10 to fish on Saturday.

B.A.S.S. meets us in the middle

I’m thankful that B.A.S.S. divided the 2026 Progressive Bassmaster Elite Series schedule into five events that allow forward-facing sonar (FFS) and four that do not. They never could have pleased...

Preparing for the future

I've decided I want to share this journey with you. The fans are the reason any of us have this career, and who better to follow along when somebody is trying to make this work than you guys?
