M2 Fishing, established and run by local bass fishing enthusiasts, is widely considered the best team bass fishing circuit in the West. Our goal is to work with local sponsors, fishing industries and beyond, to bring west coast anglers a professional tournament experience and the very best of payouts and prizes.
Currently running the Nevada ABA, The Desert Dash, and the Annual Pat Donoho Memorial, M2 strives on well organized, expert events. Complete with real-time standings both at the weigh in site and online (live leaderboards), live feeds, instant results, complete photo galleries and event articles, M2 has everything for both Pro and Weekend anglers alike.
Our website hosts a one-stop spot to easily find required forms, review up-coming schedules, view full results with links directly to live feeds and photos, and so much more.
But we do not stop there! We also proudly support all circuits and provide as much information for anglers to enjoy as possible; boasting what we believe to be the largest database for tournament bass fishing in the world. This includes records and lake info for over 260 locations, angler data with nearly 47,000 anglers on record, nearly 35,000 teams and their stats, angler and team comparisons, bass fishing articles from all over going back to the early 80s, local schedules for all circuits, and so much more!
Our History
In February of 2022, Jason Bryan took over as the director for the NV ABA Region. A very challenging time where turnouts for NV ABA events regularly did not exceed 10 teams.
In March of 2022, Wayne St. John held the first Desert Dash event which was shortened to one day due to the wind. The event was still a success in that it was the first of its kind that we have seen out west. Two days, two different lakes!
Wayne and Jason, both experienced anglers and event organizers, joined forces in 2023 to elevate Desert Dash II. Their synergy and shared vision sparked what became the foundation for M2 across all three circuits.
Fast forward to 2025, M2 now has a staff of seven and runs 9 events per season. NV ABA events regularly host 40-60 teams, with the 2024 Pat Donoho Memorial hitting 80 teams. From 2022 to 2025, entries grew from 121 to 408 and payouts exploded from $31,115 to over $151,842!
Jason's tournament software and sponsorship expertise, paired with Wayne's event design, media, and production, transformed the NV ABA Region into a top-tier West Coast circuit.
M2 also prides itself on sponsor recognition across all media — website, flyers, podcasts, and live feeds. If you’d like to join the M2 Team or have questions, we’d love to hear from you!
