    Alabama Bass Are Going to Make Smallmouth Bass Extinct...

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Serious Angler Podcast, we sit down with Jason Henegar, Fisheries Division Chief for the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA), to discuss a growing crisis in our southern fisheries: the invasion of the Alabama Bass. Often illegally transplanted into new waters, these Alabama-strain spotted bass are wreaking havoc on native smallmouth bass populations through rapid hybridization. Jason breaks down the science behind this alarming trend, explaining how these hybrids (often called "meanmouths") are literally breeding purebred smallmouth out of existence in world-class waters across the Tennessee River system, including Fort Loudon-Tellico and Parksville Lake. We dive deep into what this means for the future of tournament bass fishing, the looming threat to legendary fisheries like Dale Hollow, and the drastic regulation changes the TWRA is implementing to manage the fallout. 📌 Important Links: TWRA: https://www.tn.gov/twra.html 📌 Check out Serious Angler Network lifestyle and podcast apparel here: https://seriousanglernetwork.com/ 📌 Click here to start your FREE trial of Omnia Fishing Premium PRO: https://omnia.direct/SAPremiumPRO 📌 This episode is brought to you by our amazing partners: • If you're a fishing guide, check out the Bloodknot App here: https://www.bloodknotapp.com/ • Amped Outdoors Lithium Batteries (https://ampedoutdoors.com/) • RecLending (https://www.reclending.com/): Looking to buy a boat or RV?
