The Xtreme Bass Series announced today the divisional schedules for the 2025 season, marking the 21st year of providing close to home events for non-professional, grass roots anglers. This season promises to be one of the most exciting yet, with new opportunities for anglers across Florida.
North River Division Returns
The North River division will make a much-anticipated return to the St. John’s River and Rodman Reservoir following the 2024 Championship. Anglers should note that Rodman Reservoir will not be fishable waters during the drawdown period until the state of Florida lifts the executive order on harvesting bass. Currently, the executive order is set to expire on April 3rd.

Introducing the Panhandle Division
The Xtreme Bass Series is expanding, adding a new division for the 2025 season. The Panhandle Division will feature events at Lake Seminole and Lake Talquin, providing anglers in the region with opportunities to compete and qualify for the championship. Phillip King will be the director for the new Panhandle division.
Championship Returns to Lake Kissimmee
The 2025 Championship will be held along the shores of Lake Kissimmee at Camp Mack, a Guy Harvey Lodge, Resort, and Marina. There will not be a Kissimmee division for the 2025 season. Additionally, the Lake Toho division will be regulated to Lake Toho only during qualifying events, and Lake Toho will be off-limits for the championship event.
