It’s a Fish Off!

by Don Zaegel on October 17th, 2007

     I am going to have to say that this is one of the neatest ideas that I have seen done in a while. It’s even more exciting for the anglers that will be participating I am sure. February 7-9, the FLW Series will be hosting an East/West Fish off. The top 30 anglers and co-anglers from both the Eastern Division and Western Division will compete in a bracket style tournament. Site TBD. What is even better is that the angler and co-angler who produced the biggest overall weight over the three days receive entry into the 2008 Forrest Wood Cup. The FLW’s $1 million championship. The Fish Off winner on the angler side also receives a $25,000 payout and the co-angler receives a $5,000 payout. A few anglers that qualified for the event you may have heard of include: Steve Kennedy, Tommy Biffle, & Derek Remitz. 

     There are constantly new ways being created for anglers to get the break that they need to get into or qualify for the top circuits of bass fishing. This just starts to make me wonder if there are too many or is there enough?
