Sun back in full posture, Whitewater Fishing proudly rolls out the new Rays Performance Hoodie. Anglers are wising up, however, many wearing long-sleeved and hooded shirts with built-in sun protection. To that point, the technologically advanced Rays Performance Hoodie offers UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) 50+ sun defense.
Whitewater Fishing pro ambassadors drill down into the details of what elevated them in the 2024 Bassmaster Classic.
Whitewater Fishing is proud to announce that two of its pro ambassadors did precisely that. Both hailing from Wisconsin—yet competing on the southern waters of Grand Lake O’ The Cherokees near Tulsa, Oklahoma—Adam Rasmussen and Jay Przekurat, finished second and fourth, respectively.
When B.A.S.S. Elite Series pro and Wisconsin native Jay Przekurat began his first year as an Elite angler in 2022, he set a personal goal to do well enough to end each tournament by cashing a check and maintaining his spot in the top half of the angler standings.
Two predictable things happen when the peak of summer arrives and temperatures rise. The first is that fishermen lose some of their enthusiasm, and the second is that fish can become harder to find. Anglers take heart; it’s no big mystery.
I often fish the lakes or many rivers near my home in Missouri. During summer, however, I often take advantage of the longer daylight hours to fish in nearby ponds. No matter how often I fish a local pond, it always takes me back to my childhood when I first began fishing with my father and two siblings. These local farm ponds are where I learned to fish, made my first angling memories, and fueled my passion for bass fishing.
