Previous Next Special Events Free Magazine Fall 2020 Hi Anglers Welcome to the pages of WesternBass.com Magazine Fall 2020. As a special insert this issue, we’ve provided a look at some of the new products that site sponsors have worked hard on for release at this year’s ICAST. Feel free to continue your virtual view of ICAST 2020 and make your angler’s wish list. You never know what will be the “next best thing”! Speaking of new product, we are excited to help preview the newest collab from the Frog Master – Bobby Barrack and Tackle Technology with his two new signature series designs. They are available at Fisherman’s Warehouse and affiliate stores. As we head into TOC time, I have to say 2020 has been a year like no other. At WesternBass, we are fortunate to be a place that provides relief from some of that craziness – a place to talk fishing and share our fishing adventures. The support of our sponsors and our readers is what allows us to do so and we are thankful for both. Because of that, we want to take a moment to remind everyone that WesternBass, including the free Classifieds and WesternBass.com magazine is all paid for by the sponsors of the site and provided at no charge to the readers and users. Please remember those companies and support those who support you. Good luck on the water! Wayne Summer 2020 Hi Anglers I hope you and your family are doing fine and hopefully back to fishing the lakes you enjoy. The summer fishing season is finally here – something many of us have been excitedly waiting for during the forced hiatus. It is very nice to see some normalcy returning to our fishing industry. Thanks to all of our readers for sharing their fishing adventures in the forums. To kick off the season, our summer issue features one of the many anglers that contributes to essential workers in these challenging times. WesternBass wants to thank Clara as well as the many, many others. Please keep your local mom and pop businesses and the people and places that support them, in mind for your needs. We are all on the road to recovery together! Good luck on the water! Wayne Spring 2020 Hi Anglers Once again, I am putting the finishing touches on the WesternBass.com Magazine wondering where the time has gone. The new season has kicked off for many of our tournament circuits and big bass are already starting to show up. As we’ve seen in the WesternBass. com forums there are already double-digits and even teeners starting to bite. It is always an exciting time of year and we are looking forward to what 2020 will bring. I hope all of you are enjoying our quarterly magazine. We have continued to bring the latest in technology along with great articles and video content for your enjoyment. I want to also thank all our site viewers and mag readers for their support and invite you all to support our site advertisers...
