Episode 23 - Randy Moss Chases Bass and Talks the Future of Professional Fishing

Former NFL star Randy Moss sits down with Field & Stream alongside World Bass Enterprises CEO Brian Byrd and angler Andrew Green to talk bass fishing, life on the water, and the massive Champions Tournament coming to Nashville.

Moss traces his fishing roots back to growing up along the rivers of West Virginia before discovering a deeper passion for bass fishing. He shares what he has learned chasing largemouth and smallmouth bass across the country, why getting outdoors feels like therapy, and how those experiences became the foundation for his fishing show, Chasing Ten.

The conversation also breaks down the vision behind the World Bass Enterprises Champions Tournament, which brings elite anglers together on Old Hickory Lake for a high-stakes championship designed to crown a true world champion. The crew digs into the tournament format, forward-facing sonar rules, the inclusion of everyday anglers, and why a challenging fishery could make for an unpredictable finish.

Moss also recounts landing his first 10-pound bass while filming Chasing Ten, talks about traveling the country in pursuit of fish, and explains the show's mission to introduce more people to bass fishing and the outdoors. The conversation closes with a look at his partnership with the Children's Cancer Research Fund and his efforts to use fishing to give back.
