May 17, 2026 • Phoenix Moore • Bass Pro Tour

OCALA, Fla. — On the surface, it looked like a slow start on a lazy Sunday for Group B’s first day of qualifying at Kubota Heavy Hitters Presented by Bass Pro Shops, but with the $10,000 big bass of the day on the line while also racing for a spot in the top eight, it was more of a 16-way chess match.
