Major League Fishing?
Yep. Major League Fishing. The MLF roster contains a short list of very big names in competitive bass fishing, and the format is unlike anything else ever tried. The league was spearheaded by Boyd Duckett and is privately owned by the anglers themselves, and major TV appeal is the No. 1 objective. Interesting stuff, not doubt. Read all about it on BassFan.
Meanwhile, the Forrest Wood Cup begins next week, with 58 of the nation's top pros competing for a first prize of 1/2 million dollars and the title of Champion on Arkansas' Lake Ouachita.
On the B.A.S.S. side, the All Star event concluded last weekend. Congratulations to Tennessee pro Ott DeFoe, who capped of a tremendous rookie season by winning the unique year-end event. DeFoe, who ran away with the Rookie of the Year award during the regular season, had to beat Mike Iaconelli, Gerald Swindle and Edwin Evers in head-to-head competition on back-to-back-to-back days to win the All Stars and the $100,000 check that went with the event. Quite a start to a very promising pro career!
