Ooops, Ho Vinto.

HENRICO, Va. James river June 26, 2023 MLF Phoenix Bass Fishing League Introduction We finally have a chance to tell the story of a tournament gone well. We cheer for Jacopo, his wife Federica and their dog Yago. We do it to lift their spirits. But in a way, we all needed this one. I […]

La prima vittoria non si scorda mai, ma…

Introduction We return to the Potomac, a great and important river that runs between southern and northern states, a line dividing the country during the Civil War. It is also the stage on which Jacopo’s most extraordinary victory to date took place on the professional circuit. That victory certainly provided psychological pressure that was the […]

Il “peggior co-angler di sempre” ed altre avventure

Introduction Only a few days after the cursed tournament on Lake of the Ozarks, Jacopo found himself back in Alabama for the MLF Toyota Series (Southern division) tournament on Lake Eufaula. Tired from the previous, stressful event, Jacopo has only two official practice days and does his best to use them well.  In the case […]

Lake of the Ozarks, bellezza e dannazione.

Introduction For the fourth event in the MLF Tackle Warehouse Invitationals, Jacopo faced an immense, unfamilir lake for the umpteenth time this season.

I didn’t have a great tournament, […]

Nel lago più grande dell’Oklahoma non può essere facile ritrovarsi.

For the third stop of the MLF Tackle Warehouse Invitationals,  Jacopo had to again figure out a lake that was new to him. An angler will always encounter challenges when fishing against the best pros, and perhaps more so on a fishery like Eufala. It’s a lake that by its very nature does not offer […]

Pickwick Lake, ritorno a Florence.

Tournament report   It’s always a bit strange for someone born in Florence, Italy, like Jacopo, to return to the vicinity of the picturesque town of Florence in Alabama. Although in reality, this Phoenix Bass Fishing League (MLF) circuit tournament started from Iuka in Mississippi and took place on a dam on the Tennessee River… […]

Lewis Smith Lake: il lago più profondo dell'Alabama.

The maximum depth is 264 feet and the fish species suitable for tournaments consist of Largemouth black bass […]
