Major League Fishing’s General Tire Heavy Hitters Special Presented by Bass Pro Shops to Air Sunday on CBS

Date:

BENTON, Ky. (Nov. 30, 2023) –Sundays in December are showcases for some of the most finely tuned competitors in the world (and we’re not talking about the ones on the gridiron). This Sunday, Dec. 3, Major League Fishing’s General Tire Heavy Hitters Special Presented by Bass Pro Shops all-star event will premiere nationwide on the CBS Television Network and Paramount+ from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. ET OR 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET (depending on local NFL schedule). This star-studded event – featuring anglers from MLF’s Bass Pro Tour – showcases 30 MLF pros competing in a six-day tournament on Caney Creek Reservoir and Bussey Brake in Monroe-West Monroe, Louisiana, for a purse of more than $500,000 ($100,000 to the winner). But here’s the “heavy” in “Heavy Hitters”: anglers are also competing for Big Bass Bonuses totaling $25,000 for each of the two Qualifying Rounds, $50,000 for the Knockout Round and an astounding $100,000 reward for the biggest bass in the Championship Round.

Sunday’s airing on CBS will showcase the highlights from all six days of competition, which was hosted in late April by Discover Monroe-West Monroe and the Louisiana Office of Tourism, with behind-the-scenes angler commentary and interviews as well as one of the most convincing victories in Major League Fishing history.
