New York winners with a printed date: 5 results on 3 waters from the 2026 seasons, each linked to the host or news page it came from.
Why New York has no five-bass average yet
None of the dated New York winners on file is a one-day five-bass limit: the bass events here ran three or four days, and the derbies score the heaviest single fish or a three-walleye bag, so no average is printed.

New York winners, asked and answered
Which New York water needs the heaviest one-day five-bass bag?
No New York one-day five-bass winner with a printed weight is on file.
How many New York winners have a printed date?
5 dated New York winners from 2026.
How would a New York five-bass average be figured?
Only one-day five-bass winning weights printed for the same water would be averaged together.
Why do derby, walleye and multi-day results stay out of the average?
A heaviest-fish derby, a three-walleye bag or a four-day total measures something else, so mixing them in would bend a five-bass figure.
What is the top New York one-day five-bass win on file?
No New York one-day five-bass winner with a printed weight is on file.
Where were the New York winners read?
B.A.S.S. and MLF releases, Lake Champlain International and Lake Ontario Counties results, and outdoor columns in local papers, each linked in its row.
How often do New York results get updated?
A weekly check adds New York winners once a host or paper prints them.
