DECATUR, AL – The Alabama Bass Trail (ABT) 100 Series is set to kick off its fifth season 2025 with Stop #1 at Lake Guntersville on January 18, 2025.
The blast off will take place at Goose Pond Marina, 417 Ed Hembree Drive, Scottsboro at 7:00 A.M. or safe daylight, with the first flight due in at 3:00 P.M. for weigh-in.
This stop marks the fourth time the Alabama Bass Trail Tournament Series has held an event at Goose Pond since its inception.
“Lake Guntersville is where we hosted the first ABT in 2014 and the winning weight that day was 32.02. And 11 years later that weight still stands as the heaviest bag ever weighed in at an ABT event. I am hopeful with the incredible fishing we have seen on Lake Guntersville in the last six weeks, we see that record broken this weekend. Goose Pond is a great facility, and we look forward to being in Scottsboro, AL to kick off the season,” said Kay Donaldson, Director of the Alabama Bass Trail 100 Tournament Series.
Live coverage beginning at 7am CST on Alabama Bass Trail 100 Facebook, YouTube – Alabama Bass Trail TV, and AlabamaBassTrail100.org.
