The 2026 Hooked Up Bass Team Tournament Series Championship sponsored by Fin Feather Fur Outfitters and Tuck Precast at Portage Lakes is in the books and that puts a wrap on the 2026 Season.

Congratulations to our tournament champions Andrew Francis and Joel Martin!

The Team of Francis and Martin weighed in 17.44lbs on day one anchored by the I.C.D.M. Big Bass of the tournament of 4.92lbs. On day 2 they stayed the course and put 16.42lbs on the scales, for a two day total of 33.86lbs crowning them 2X Hooked Up Team Series Championship Champions!!!

The team of Andy Pierce and Jamie Pierce finished up the event in the number 2 spot. The Pierce's weighed in 15.69 on day, but in Pierce fashion they stayed calm cool and collected to add 17.57lbs to that on the final day for a total of 33.26lbs and day two I.C.D.M Big Bass of 4.73lbs and scoring some Vic's Bonus money along the way!

After leading on day 1 with 18.85lbs Mike Schmeltzer and Lance Gunter gave it their all to keep that top spot but fell and little short putting 14.00lbs on the board for the second day, for a two day total of 32.85lbs dropping them to 3rd place.

Congratulations again to our 2026 AOY Season Points Champions Rich Glavac and Mike Gallagher!!!
