The PROBLEM in High School Tournament Fishing NO ONE Wants to Talk About
High school and youth bass fishing tournaments are exploding in popularity, and getting more kids on the water is a great thing—but after seeing dead fish following a late-summer event on Lake Guntersville, I think we need to have an uncomfortable conversation about the traditional tournament format we’re teaching the next generation. In this video, I explain why youth tournaments are the perfect place to implement an MLF-style catch-weigh-release or CPR catch-photo-release format, using boat captains, standardized scales and tournament technology to immediately release bass instead of keeping them in livewells all day and transporting them to a weigh-in. This isn’t about fewer kids fishing or fewer tournaments; it’s about better fish care, bass conservation and tournament fishing, while teaching young anglers habits that could eventually change competitive bass fishing for the better.
