In May 2025, the Association of Collegiate Anglers concluded its 20 th season of the Bass Pro Shops Collegiate Bass Fishing Series. The National Championship event on Lake Hartwell marked the end of this historic season and there are plenty of highlights from 2024-2025: • Collegiate anglers continue to show up bigger than ever – each ACA regional tournament well-surpassed 500 anglers, with the Big Bass Bash having nearly 600 anglers compete! • Bass Pro Shops School of the Year Race was again epic with the University of Montevallo Bass Fishing Team earning this title for the fifth year in a row! • Many of our partners have been supporting collegiate bass fishing with us since our first event in 2006 – this is a testament to our strong partnerships and program! • Our partners allow the ACA to provide more discount programs | contingencies to collegiate anglers than any other collegiate fishing series. • There are still no-entry fees into our ACA tournaments, thus truly promoting the growth of collegiate bass fishing.
