This week’s Bassmaster Team Championship being held here in Central Florida on the Harris Chain of Lakes is exciting, but to have five teams from Florida participating is extra special. Four of the five teams qualified through the Florida B.A.S.S. Nation Team Trail Series and the other qualified through Lakeland Bassmasters, an affiliated club of the Florida B.A.S.S. Nation.
The Florida B.A.S.S. Nation Teams competing this week qualified through the Team Series Trail and then had to finish in the top four of the FBN Team Championship, which was held this past September on Lake Okeechobee from Okeechobee City.
