Why I Chose the Lund Pro-V Bass 

When people found out I'd be fishing a Lund Pro-V Bass on the 2027 tournament trail, the first question was simple:

Why Lund?

The answer comes down to my experience on the water. After spending time in a Lund Impact, I realized there was a lot more to Lund boats than many anglers realize. The versatility, ride quality, and overall design completely changed my perception of what an aluminum fishing boat could be.

Now, I'm taking that next step and fishing tournaments from a Lund Pro-V Bass.

What Makes the Lund Pro-V Bass a Good Tournament Boat?

As a professional angler, I need a boat that helps me perform, not one I have to work around.

The three biggest things I look for in a tournament bass boat are storage, ride quality, and fishability. The Lund Pro-V Bass checks all three boxes.

1. Storage for Serious Anglers

Tournament fishing requires a lot of gear. Between rods, tackle, rain gear, electronics, and everything else that accumulates throughout a season, organization matters.

One of the first things that stood out to me about the Lund Pro-V Bass was the amount of storage. There's room for everything I need, and it's laid out in a way that makes sense when you're competing.

When you're fishing for a living, efficiency matters, and having your equipment exactly where you need it can make a difference over the course of a long day.

2. A Smooth Ride in Rough Water

Professional anglers don't get to choose ideal conditions.

Some tournament mornings are calm. Others involve strong winds, big waves, and long runs across open water.

That's where the Lund Pro-V Bass really impressed me.

The boat delivers the kind of ride and confidence I need when conditions get tough. Knowing I can safely and comfortably navigate rough water allows me to focus on fishing instead of worrying about the ride.

For tournament anglers, that's a major advantage.

3. Built for Fishability

A great bass boat has to be comfortable to fish from.

It needs to feel stable when you're moving around the deck. It needs a layout that makes sense. Most importantly, it needs to help you fish effectively all day long.

The Lund Pro-V Bass was clearly designed by people who understand anglers.

It's stable, comfortable, and incredibly fishable. Whether I'm making hundreds of casts a day or spending hours targeting a specific pattern, the platform gives me exactly what I'm looking for in a tournament boat.

The Lund Community Sets It Apart

One thing that doesn't get talked about enough is the Lund community.

What I've noticed is that Lund owners are fishermen first. They're passionate about being on the water and helping other anglers get the most from their boats.

Whether it's rigging advice, accessories, setup tips, or choosing the right model, there are always people willing to share their experience.

For anyone considering a Lund, that level of support is a huge benefit.

Why I'm Excited About 2027

The Lund Pro-V Bass gives me everything I'm looking for in a tournament platform:

• Plenty of storage
• A confident ride in rough water
• Outstanding fishability
• A design built for serious anglers
• A passionate community behind the brand

I'm excited to put it to work on the tournament trail and share what I learn throughout the season.

If you've ever wondered whether a Lund Pro-V Bass can compete at the highest levels of bass fishing, you'll be able to see it firsthand. I'll be fishing it all season long and showing exactly what this boat is capable of on the water.
