Bossier City angler Nick LeBrun is in the 24-man field for the fourth 2025 Major League Fishing Clash Team Series presented by Bass Pro Shops event next week, Nov. 16-21, in Shreveport and Bossier City, as part of the Bass Pro Shops Summit Cup presented by Zenni.
Hosted by the Shreveport-Bossier Sports Commission, the event is the final Fishing Clash Team series event of the 2025 season.
In keeping with traditional MLF Cup protocols, Shreveport-Bossier was not revealed to Team Series competitors until six weeks prior to the start of the tournament. All fishable waters within 60 miles of Shreveport then went off limits to anglers. Fans watching the MLFNOW! livestream will find out the day’s competition waters right along with the anglers each morning.
“We are so excited to partner with Major League Fishing right here in the heart of Sportsman’s Paradise,” said Sara Nelms, Director of Sports for the Shreveport-Bossier Sports Commission. “Our waterways offer some of the best fishing in the world, and Shreveport-Bossier City will deliver nothing less than the world class hospitality Louisiana is known for.”
Fans are encouraged to follow the Bass Pro Shops Summit Cup Presented by Zenni online throughout the day on the MLFNOW!® live stream. Every minute of every event will still stream in full on MajorLeagueFishing.com, the MLF and MyOutdoorTV (MOTV) apps, RFD-TV Now, Game & Fish TV, and Rumble, with the final period each day being broadcast live nationwide on RFD-TV. Post-produced episodes of the Fishing Clash Team Series will start in January 2026 on Outdoor Channel.
