working hard on scheduling and getting sponsors. We’ve also helped add a junior high division, so our other son – Oakley – will be able to fish in the 7th grade, and he’s fired up!
There are several Bassmaster High school tournaments that we’ll be fishing before the end of the year, and they will be fun.
I’ve also been travelling around speaking at several churches and charity events. I really enjoy doing that and meeting all the great people in various towns.
In October, I went to the Triton Boats factory dealer open house in Arkansas. We toured the new plant, and met the employees that build the boats for Triton. This plant is the new home for Triton boats. Now, they don’t have to share a facility with Ranger anymore, and everyone can grow!
It was exciting to see the White River Marine Group investing in the future of Triton boats. They are committed to bringing back the high-performance and quality that it was built on when I started with Earl Bentz in 1996. The future has never looked brighter for Triton and their dealer base – nationwide!
location is secret. Once the fisheries are scheduled and in place, everyone will know where they are – the anglers and the fans. It will be like that for the eight regular season events, and the Tour championship.
For each event, there will be a “Live Results Show” where we will have fan interaction, just like we’ve had with the Elite Series.
The only difference is there will only be 40 anglers fishing each day, and there won’t be any weigh-ins; because we won’t be keeping fish. We will have boat officials weighing and releasing every fish, so the conservation mindset is the main objective.
More information on that will be released soon along with our locations; so, stay tuned to Majorleaguefishing.com for all the details. With Major League Fishing and the Bass Pro Tour, it’s a new era of professional fishing on the horizon, and I’m excited to be a part of it!

KING’S HOME | RANDY HOWELL BOAT GIVEAWAY
This is the 8th year for our King’s Home boat giveaway, and this is what we’re focusing on now as I write this article.
This annual event is Kings Home’s biggest fundraiser. We’ve helped raise nearly 1 million dollars in seven years with seven Triton boats!
As I write this, I’m praying we break all records on ticket sales this year and raise a bunch of money for the kids and ladies’ homes. This is something we’re passionate about, and we’re thankful that OUR fishing community has bought-into our mission to help those in need!
King’s Home’s mission statement says it all… “We seek to serve and glorify God by providing Christ-centered homes and services in which compassion and competence combine to meet the needs of women, children and families”.

2019 | THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT
The dates for the Bass Pro tour are set, but we’re still waiting on the locations to be released.
The Bass Pro Tour won’t be completely like the Major League Fishing format on television now, where every
