Once more, high winds have prompted B.A.S.S. officials to cancel the second day of competition on the St. Johns River. The wind advisory from the National Weather Service is calling for winds 20-30 m.p.h. with guests over 40, making the fishery unsafe for boaters.
The Bassmaster Elite Series Outdoors Expo will be open at 2 p.m. ET on Friday at Palatka Riverfront Park. Fans will be able to meet their favorite Elite Series pros for autographs, photos and to share stories.
Competition in the AFTCO Bassmaster Elite at St. Johns River is expected to resume Saturday morning, when the field of 88 anglers launches at 7:15 a.m. ET from Palatka City Dock and Boat Ramp.
