2025 Tri State Champions are Timothy Russell & Michael Fountain

Massachusetts was the host for the 2025 Tri-State Championship on Quaboag Pond in Brookfield MA. Thirteen teams showed up to compete in a very wet early spring showdown. The forecast was heavy rain throughout the day with wind 10-15 and gusts to 25mph, and they were right!

Water temperatures were in the mid to upper 50’s. Catching a limit is difficult during spring in New England, but some teams found the key to a limit of bass and some quality bass were brought to the scales. A total of 52 bass, all largemouth, were caught among the 13 teams during competition.

Big Bass for the event was caught by Reece Trottier & Christopher Stella which weighed 5 pounds 4 ounces. 3rd Place went to the team of Hunter Laplante & Quinn Field with 13 pounds 7 ounces. 2nd place went to the team of Dylan Martin & Thomas Wood brining 14 pounds 6 ounces to the scales.

The 2025 Tri State Champions are Timothy Russell & Michael Fountain with a total weight of 17 pounds and 1 ounce. Timothy and Michael are long time participants in the Massachusetts Bass Federation Junior & High School Program who love the competition and have become some of the top anglers at the high school level. These two anglers previously have top finishes at Massachusetts State Championship & TBF National Semi-Final events and are expected to continue to excel in their fishing careers.

New Mexico High School and Youth State qualifier Held April 5,6 2025 at Elephant Butte Lake, NM 

New Mexico First High School and Youth State qualifier Held April 5,6 2025 at Elephant Butte Lake NM.  The kids had some tough fishing conditions with Saturday Temps at Take off begin 28 degrees and snow/ hail mid morning on the anglers.  We had to move the weigh in on Saturday to noon from 2pm due to gusting winds of 25-30 mph and unsafe conditions on the lake. But with a shorted day these boys were still able to bring in a 5 fish limit.  Only in New Mexico can you go from a winter weather storm one day  to a Blue sky 65 degrees day the next. With Sunday having a clear sky and no wind with the temps almost 70 degrees mid day. Make for a tough bite but the teams were able to change to the conditions and bring in a respectable limit.
