About BassGold

Jay Kumar

BassGold was created by Jay Kumar. You may know Jay as the guy who also created BassFan.com and other fishing firsts like the statistical BassFan World Rankings of professional bass anglers, the BassFan Army membership program and a few other things. He's also known for his time on the popular ESPN show Loudmouth Bass, which he co-hosted with Mark Zona, and for being a B.A.S.S. senior writer for many years.

Jay says this about BassGold: "Pattern information is hugely valuable for anglers – obviously. That's why at BassFan we set the standard for ultra-detailed pattern reporting. But there's so much pattern information now. Really too much. So much that fishermen spend hours and hours searching for nuggets of pattern info across multiple websites.

"We wanted to solve that problem, and at the same time reinvent how pattern information is presented and used. Since reinvention is what we do here, we banged our heads together and out popped BassGold.

"The feedback so far has been awesome, so I guess we're doing what we set out to do. As always, I'm just psyched that we can help people catch more fish and have more fun fishing."

Jay's company also runs BassParade.com and SeriousBirdHunting.com, and has more outdoor firsts in the works.
