Scottsboro, AL (July 8, 2024) – Unless you’ve been hiding under your boat cover, you’ve probably heard the news about what will be the largest professional and amateur bass fishing tournament and payout in the history of bass fishing…
Unified Pros, a nonprofit with no ownership, has organized the biggest news in tournament bass fishing since those early days of the sport. Unified Pros, in tandem with the state of Alabama, has announced the Ultimate Angler Championship—October 5th – 11th on Lake Guntersville, near Scottsboro, AL. with a guaranteed 1st Place payout of $500,000, the tournament guarantees a total of over 1 million in cash payouts.
Conceived to “inspire and unify a global community of professional athletes from all leagues to champion the power of the outdoors, fostering unity, excellence, competition, and philanthropy—and elevate sportfishing, the outdoors, and conservation” – the tournament promises to be a truly epic event.
In combination with the state of Alabama, as well as local partners, City of Scottsboro, Jackson County and state leadership, the group not only wants to unite bass anglers across circuits, but to raise awareness of the state’s healthy bass fisheries and help raise funds for conservation—ultimately, to fund grants for federal-matched dollars for conservation. The unprecedented payout is secured and over $1 million will go to a guaranteed, top 10 finish payout to kickstart United Pros’ and greater Alabama’s first event.
Modeled after the Masters/US Open, and like the Masters/US Open, Ultimate Angler will be open to qualifying college anglers, amateurs, and pros. United Pros also modeled the tournament after AP college football, essentially creating a bass fishing version of an FCS game, the first and only champion crowned across multiple leagues and tournament trails.
The other thing that separates United Pros inauguaral event from other tournaments is that it will not be sponsor-driven. All of the money is being underwritten by the state of Alabama, Jackson County, and the City of Scottsboro.
*Also note: This tournament will have a five fish limit, prohibit use of forward-facing sonar, and feature social media collaboration across the blog with an outdoor expo.
