Kenny Sloan Takes the Win at Truman Lake BFL, Presented by Witch Doctor Tackle

Kenny Sloan wins tough BFL event on Truman Lake as Witch Doctor Tackle backs anglers battling high water, heavy pressure, and serious fish

WARSAW, MO, UNITED STATES, June 21, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Truman Lake challenged even the most seasoned anglers this past weekend, but Missouri’s Kenny Sloan stayed steady, bringing a five-fish limit to the scales weighing 17 pounds, 12 ounces. His win at the Phoenix Bass Fishing League (BFL) event, presented by Witch Doctor Tackle, marks another standout moment in a season defined by high water, high pressure, and high performance.

Navigating Tough Conditions with Time-Tested Tactics

With water levels nearly nine feet above normal and intense fishing pressure across the lake, many anglers had to make constant adjustments. Sloan returned to familiar territory, targeting shallow cover in the Grand River arm with Texas-rigged soft plastics, a decision rooted in years of experience on Truman.

Supporting Serious Anglers, One Event at a Time

As presenting sponsor, Witch Doctor Tackle continues to support competitive bass fishing at every level, from grassroots leagues to national circuits. Events like the BFL exemplify the brand’s mission: to champion anglers who demand more from their gear and the sport.

While Sloan didn’t rely on Witch Doctor rods during his win, the challenging conditions at Truman highlighted exactly why purpose-driven rod design matters. Heavy cover, subtle bites, and pressured fish call for high-performance fishing rods built with precision, durability, and unmatched sensitivity.

Eyes on Lake of the Ozarks and Beyond

The next time these anglers will be here is for the Lake of the Ozarks event, September 13–14. It’s an opportunity for anglers to lock in their place for the BFL Regionals this fall.

And as the season builds toward its biggest moments, Witch Doctor Tackle will be supporting the journey and proving why the best bass fishing rods start with the right foundation.
