REDDING, Calif. (Jan. 20, 2021) – Major League Fishing (MLF) announced today the postponement of three tournaments scheduled for Jan. 28-31 on Lake Shasta in Redding, California. The decision was made after MLF officials learned of new travel restrictions implemented by the Shasta-Trinity National Forest Service in response to the coronavirus pandemic. The new restrictions prevent anglers who are traveling from more than 120 miles away from competing in the event.
The MLF events that have been postponed are:
- Jan. 28-30: Toyota Series presented by A.R.E. Western Division at Lake Shasta
- Jan. 30: Abu Garcia College Fishing presented by YETI at Lake Shasta
- Jan. 31: High School Fishing presented by Favorite Fishing at Lake Shasta
Rescheduled dates for these three events will be announced as soon as possible.
Being an inherently socially distant sport, the vast majority of 2021 tournaments will continue as scheduled, operating under COVID-19 protocols to safeguard the health and well-being of all involved. MLF will continue to follow the suggestions and guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, public health professionals and permitting agencies.
