The 2017 tournament fishing season was a wild one with surprising twists and turns along the way. A couple of younger anglers, Jordan Lee and Brandon Palaniuk won the Bassmaster Classic and the Angler of the Year title. Steve Kennedy and John Murray proved they can still swing the big bat with their victories on the Bassmaster Elite Series. A wild and and thrilling year for sure.

Check out a few fun images when the weather was warm.
