Bass

FLW Tour pro, JT Kenney, moved from Maine to Florida to chase his dream of becoming a professional bass angler in 2004. Everything about Florida suited his style, especially fishing matted vegetation.  Being one of the first bass anglers to have a Power Pole mounted on his Ranger bass boat, he knew there was something special about it.

Ish can fish. Ish Monroe that is. Yep, he's had wins on both the Bassmaster Elite Series and the FLW Tour. He's having a solid year and is in the Top 35 in Bassmaster Angler of the Year points after four events. If the season ended today, he'd be fishing the Bassmaster Classic in 2018.

Bass Fishing pro JT Kenney is known for his prowess with a flippin' stick and punching through dense vegetation to yard out big bass in his home state of Florida. Kenney is originally a Maryland man, but the lure of the warmer Florida lifestyle pulled him to gator country years ago.

Ott DeFoe is having one heckuva run on the Bassmaster Elite Series. It all started last year with his first Elite Series victory and then continued into the 2017 season leading the Angler of the Year (AOY) points race after a couple of events. DeFoe is surely one of the top pros in pro fishing.

Mention river smallmouth fishing and most people picture shirtsleeve weather, drifting leisurely downstream on a sunny summer day, and catching lots of scrappy, but mostly small bass. That’s okay because their numbers and the gorgeous weather make up for the lack of size.
