Lee Bailey Pro Bass Angler
As a professional bass
angler I have
accomplished so much in
a short number of years.
“Some say a lifetime
worth of accomplish-
ments”. One of those was the first to
ever bring non-industry
sponsors into the sport of
Competitive bass fishing.
Sponsored By Foxwoods Resort & Casino (and many industry sponsors) allowed me to make a big splash my first season as a fulltime Touring Pro. I showed up at my first ever Bassmaster event displaying my complete pro tour rig with a color coordinated custom van pulling an enclosed trailer. Inside the trailer was my matching tour bass boat. The trailer would be opened up with a drop out floor hatch so that my tour boat could be driven in and out of it. Let me tell you it was downright amazing. My sponsors could not pay enough for all the exposure that I was actually giving them. Right from the get-go.
Lee is a renowned lure designer.
I am an Inductee into the International Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame. A Bassmaster Champion, 3-time Bassmaster Classic Contender, 2-time FLW tour Championship contender, TV producer and host to mention just a few. I became the tournament Organizer, promoter and website designer for pro anglers and manufactures alike. I became the official Connecticut River bass fishing guide for Riverfront Recapture. An organization that is revitalizing the CT river with walkways and parks. I would do many casting contests for kids and seminars for all Riverfront Recapture venues.
