Anglers will launch at 7:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday and Thursday from Big Toho Marina, located at 69 Lakeview Drive in Kissimmee, Florida. Weigh-ins will be held at the marina starting at 3:30 p.m. and will be livestreamed daily.

Hosted by Experience Kissimmee, the 15th annual College Fishing National Championship will feature 138 teams of the nation’s best collegiate anglers competing for a $43,500 prize package, including a new Phoenix 518 Pro bass boat with a 115-horsepower outboard, an additional $10,000 and the chance to advance to the 2024 Toyota Series Championship and REDCREST 2025 – MLF’s most prestigious championship – to fish for top prizes of $235,000 and $300,000, respectively.
