25th Anniversary Auction by the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame
Eugene L. 04.21.25
The Bass Fishing Hall of Fame is kicking off the celebration of its 25th anniversary by hosting an online silent auction for a bunch of unique fishing gear packages, one-of-a-kind paintings, and autographed fishing memorabilia this month in a continuing effort to support the Hall of Fame’s mission of celebrating, promoting, and preserving the sport of bass fishing. The Bass Fishing Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary Auction is ongoing until April 29th, with additional items to be added throughout the auction’s duration.
“The continuing support we receive from throughout the bass fishing world and those involved in the sport in so many ways shows that they also believe in the Board’s mission and our efforts,” said BFHOF Board president John Mazurkiewicz. “Plus, it’s great to see the support from new and upcoming brands like Bizz Baits, Nomad Design, Reese Fishing and RodBender Fishing Company joining in with the major players like Daiwa, Denali, Gamakatsu, Lew’s/Strike King, Shimano, SPRO, and Sunline who all again never say no when we ask for support. We can’t thank them enough.”
In addition to this auction for the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame, there will be three new inductees later this year during the annual Celebrate Bass Fishing Week. Randy Hopper, Craig Lamb, and William Shakespeare Jr. will all be inducted on Thursday, September 25th, at Johnny Morris’ Wonders of Wildlife Museum & Aquarium in Springfield, Missouri. As a part of the induction festivities of that week, the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame will be holding another online silent auction for the week as well as a live auction for the attendees of the celebration banquet. All proceeds from these auctions will support the Hall of Fame’s initiatives, including funding grants, scholarships, and youth programs, to further conservation and the sciences of fishing.
