In a landmark move for outdoor sports and Rural Media Group, Major League Fishing (MLF) and RFD-TV announced today an exclusive broadcast partnership that will bring live tournament coverage from the MLF Team Series Presented by Bass Pro Shops to a national television audience for the first time.
Starting August 24, RFD-TV will air the final period of all 24 Team Series matches live – delivering the most intense, high-stakes moments of MLF competition straight into living rooms across the country. Broadcasts will air from 2:30 to 5 p.m. ET, and unlike any other televised bass tournaments, the winner of each match will be crowned live as teams strive to survive and advance to the championship round.
The dates for the 2025 MLF Team Series are:
• Challenge Cup: Aug. 24-29, 2025
• Heritage Cup: Sept. 14-19, 2025
• Patriot Cup: Oct. 22-27, 2025
• Summit Cup: Nov. 16-21, 2025
To kick things off, be on the lookout for a special one-hour “MLF 101” broadcast on RFD-TV later this month!
