Hi All,
Welcome to the summer issue of WesternBass Magazine. With all of the rain we encountered this past winter, we have the possibility for fishing lakes that have been low for some time plus, with the snow pack these waters should remain high throughout the summer. I hope the season finds you all out fishing these great conditions.
The year has seen large attendance for many of the circuits - Wild West, Best Bass Tournaments Future Pro Tour, and WON Bass, which are all site advertisers. I want to thank you all for supporting our advertisers, without them, this site and the WesternBass.com digital publication that you are reading wouldn’t be possible. Please continue to support them as they make all of this possible.
We have many things to look forward to during our summer season. Something WesternBass always enjoys is the trip to ICAST. As usual we will be on the floor to bring you a glimpse at the new items coming from your favorite manufacturers. We will be excited to finally hear what the top secret Yo-Zuri product is that is being covertly advertised in this issue (click to see!).
I also am excited for the upcoming summer specialty events that take place each year, like the Yamamoto Big Bass Challenge, the Snag Proof Open and the Ultimate Frog Challenge.
As always good fishing - see you out on the water.
Wayne
