2019 TBF NATIONAL SEMI-FINALS CONTINUE TO GROW
The Bass Federation’s close-to-home model for hosting 22
national semi-Finals events continues to gain momentum as
more than 1,800 anglers participated in 2019. The program,
which is the steppingstone to the TBF national championship,
boasts payouts of more than 100 percent every season.
in semi-Finals competition, the top boater and co-angler
from each state advance to the national championship.
one additional boater and co-angler also advances for every
40 boats a state qualifies to the semi-Finals. kentucky and
idaho also qualified additional anglers since both states had
co-anglers out-fish their top boaters.
here is a list of qualifiers (listed as boater then co-angler)
