Only nine spots remain before the roster locks in to only pros fishing all six stops plus Bass Pro Tour anglers; impressive field has earned more than $24 million in MLF career winnings
BENTON, Ky. (Nov. 5, 2025) – The field for the 2026 Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit Presented by MillerTech is nearly complete, with 115 pros now committed to all six stops next season. That leaves just nine spots remaining before the field is officially exclusive – once it hits 124 anglers, participation will be restricted to pros fishing all six events and Bass Pro Tour anglers.
The latest group of anglers to join the 2026 roster includes: Daniel Blackert, Brent Chapman, (Skeeter) Wayn Crosby, Ethan Fields, Kyle Glasgow, Lake Johnson, Aidan Kerlin, Clint Knight, Parker Lambert, Cal Lane, Neal McWhorter, Grant Meisenhelter, Riley Nielsen, Ricky Robinson, Roman Ryan, Cason Sanchez and Matteo Turano. This latest group further bolsters what’s already one of the strongest Pro Circuit lineups in years. See the current 115-pro roster below.
In total, the 115 committed anglers have combined to earn more than $24.3 million in career winnings through MLF events alone, representing a mix of veteran heavyweights, young stars on the rise and seasoned regional hammers ready to test themselves on a national stage.
“This roster is as competitive as they come,” said Kevin Hunt, Tournament Director of the Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit. “The momentum behind the Pro Circuit right now is incredible, and with only a handful of spots left, we’re expecting to lock down the field soon. Once we hit 124 anglers that have committed to all six events, that’s it. No cherry-picking events, no one-off local entries – just a consistent field of the best anglers in the country battling it out for the title and $100,000 to $135,000 at each stop.”
The 2026 Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit season will feature six regular-season events, each offering top-tier competition, national exposure and qualification opportunities for REDCREST and the Bass Pro Tour.
The enhanced Pro Circuit, which features $100,000 to first place ($135,000 including the Phoenix MLF Bonus) and at least $10,000 to the top 33% of the field, continues to attract both new and returning competitors from across the country. The 2026 season will culminate in the Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit Championship on Florida’s Kissimmee Chain of Lakes. The full schedule, announced earlier this year, is available at MajorLeagueFishing.com.
