MASSENA — When it comes to best bass fisheries, the St. Lawrence River is tops in the nation, according to Bassmaster magazine….
The magazine announced Monday that, for the first time ever, the St. Lawrence River earned the top spot in the nation in its 2019 rankings.
“Over the past seven years, this incredible smallmouth fishery has cracked the Top 10 in Bassmaster’s 100 Best Bass Lakes rankings two times. In both 2015 and 2018, the St. Lawrence (also known as the Upper St. Lawrence River) ranked eighth on the list. This year, though, the New York fishery would not be denied as the No. 1 bass fishing destination in the country,” Bassmaster officials said in a news release.
