Guys, The hyperbole going on in the uninformed press - ie: major media sport sections, ESPN - is comical. Most of these people don't have a clue (other than perhaps Ed Zieralski) of what is really going on here and what a world record fish is all about. For starters, these guys were correct in every...

The WON BASS Pro-AAA Lake Mead Open is scheduled this weekend out of Callville Bay and according to Marina Operator Randy Roundtree, the weather is expected to calm down and be great for fishing. "It's been blowing like crazy, but the long range forcasts look great for this weekend," Round...

This fish will not be a world record for several reasons. First and foremost, the fish was weighed on a hand scale and released per WON's phone interview with Mac Wheatley. Therefore, it was not weighed on an official scale. It was immediately released after 4 quick photos were taken. Secondly, IGFA...

Here are the facts of what is currently known according to Lake Dixon staffer Tony Smock The fish weighed was cuaght by the duo of Mac Wheatley and Jed Dickerson - familiar names at this lake - and went over 24 pounds. Based upon the markings, the fish was the same one caught a few years back by bot...

I think that all of you out there are smart enough to know that any release of names may potentially put one in a legal position they do not want to be in. If the teams in question feel strong enough that they have been wronged, I'm sure they will come forth and try to defend their honor. The bass f...

This makes me sick. As an avid hunter, I am of the mindset the likes of Ted Nugent which is basically that you cherish the animals you hunt. You make a quick, clean kill and never waste the resource. When I see stuff like this, I don't know how any of these people can call anyone a slob hunter. What...

Thank you John for keeping the Bassin' community updated. As with any such situation, rumors abound and getting factual information is always important before anyone passes judgement. Reputations can be made positively or otherwise based upon such innuendo. WON BASS and other circuits are always con...

Hi Guys, There is no question that the schedule is tight. When planning these events in May of 2005, I have to consider consumer show schedules, competitive events, and holiday schedules. When the 2005 schedule was set, we knew of the FLW dates and tried to work with them in light of everything else...

Hi Ray, Themoney goes to feed by Red Bull Habit since $100 is about what I need to fuel me through a typical tournament. In the haste of putting together the program in a single day (did'nt get final word until Friday at 2pm on the Ranger deal) I flat out made an addition error. I will throw the mis...

Hello All. I certainly wanted to bring you all the information on the WON BASS season as soon as I could, but everything hinged on the finalization of a boat deal that was inked this past Saturday at the Bass A Thon – which I thought was one of the best ever. Kudos to Rick and Cindy Grover and new...

Yes I was present on the side of the stage writing the weights on the weigh slips. I was not on the stage, so I did not see the weight on the display, however, I was told by the angler that this was what had happened.

Ok, Ok, Ok, I've had this since late July and tried to hold on to it a bit longer to get some sponsor issues worked out, but everyone is more giddy than a 5 year old at christmas. Posted below is the official 2006 WON BASS Pro/AAA event schedule. More details on sponsors and headquarters sites will ...

Earlier today, I spoke with our So Cal team director Ron Cervenka regarding the use of Biosonix devices during WON BASS events. On the surface and based upon the information at hand, I made a decision that we would not allow these during our tournaments. This ruling will likely stand, however, with ...
