B.A.S.S. announced today that it's moving the launch site for this week's Bassmaster Elite Series event at the Alabama River from the Riverfront in Montgomery to Cooter's Pond in Prattville due to high water that's continuing to rise.
“It’s great being in Montgomery because we have such strong relationships here that the people involved were able to assist us with coming up with a plan as good as the original one in a matter of minutes,” said Eric Lopez, director of operations for B.A.S.S. “We appreciate the cooperative efforts of the City of Prattville and the City of Montgomery in facilitating this change.”
Anglers will launch at 6:30 a.m. CT each day at Cooter’s Pond Boat Ramp, 1844 Cooter’s Pond Road, in Prattville. The weigh-ins, originally scheduled for the first 2 days at the Montgomery Riverfront Ampitheatre, will now be held each day beginning at 3:15 CT at the Riverfront Park Union Station Train Shed (300 Water St., Montgomery).
