The St. Lawrence River, a popular destination for fishing enthusiasts, is abuzz with excitement as the National Professional Fishing League tournament comes to a close. In the town of Massena, New York, anglers from around the country have gathered to showcase their skills and compete for a $100,000 prize. The tournament, which is part of a series of seven events, has drawn a large crowd of spectators who have come to witness the action on the river. The tournament’s winner will receive a significant prize, and the competition is expected to be fierce. For professional anglers like Jesse Wise, the tournament is a dream come true. “It’s a bucket list,” Wise said. “It’s every bass fisher’s dream to compete in this tournament and have the opportunity to win the big prize.”

Wise’s comments reflect the excitement and anticipation that surrounds the tournament. Anglers from all over the country have traveled to Massena to participate in the event, and many are hoping to go home with a prize. The tournament is just one of several fishing tournaments scheduled to take place in the North Country this summer. Other events include the Major League Fishing tournament, the Bassmasters tournament, and the St. Lawrence International Jr. Carp Tournament. These tournaments will attract a large number of visitors to the area, and will have a significant impact on the local economy. “In the coming weeks, you’re going to see a lot of overlap between professional tournaments and family-friendly tournaments,” said Kathryn Puleo, St. Lawrence County’s destination manager. “We’re branding it as all-angles fishing happening in St. Lawrence County. Something for everyone.”

The influx of visitors will have a ripple effect on the local community, with fans, family, and fishermen coming to the area to experience the excitement of the tournaments. “They’re here, staying in hotels, getting gas at our local gas stations throughout the county,” said Puleo. “They’re spending local dollars and keeping it local throughout all the county.”

The local community is welcoming to the visitors, with many businesses offering special deals and discounts to attract them. “Every town you go to, the people are super nice, the restaurants are super nice, good food, and the Airbnbs have been super,” said Wise. The North Country is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, and the fishing tournaments are just one of the many reasons why. “I call it God’s country up here,” said Wise. “This is just a good area of the country.”
