Sounds like the league is making a deep foot print in the Bass fishing world. Glad to see it getting the attention it deserves.

The league could be any league, it’s the money they are after. 2020 Nitro Z20, Mercury 250xp 4 stroke "Sometimes I have to remind myself that it is called Fishing and not catching"

I did a google search and came up with nothing. He could possibly fish both NPFL hasn't released their schedule left but I can't imagine there won't be some conflicts unless NPFL has more events toward and in the fall than the other tours.

Being a little more spread out throughout the year makes it more fair in my opinion. I wish BASS and MLF would do a few fall tournaments. Watching the BASS guys fish on lakes like Fork last fall at a time of the year when they really had to work to figure things out was very interesting to me.

Very much so, the reason they don't have more fall events its because many of the anglers want to deer/elk hunt and pressure the schedule to be done before then, it should not be this way and the season should end in october at the earliest, november would be better like last year.

Maybe MLF did not fit his style and he was going to be a middle pf the pack angler in MLF? Considering he won their championship. I don’t think that was the problem. Sounds more like promises not being kept and other shady dealings.
