The Florida whiners will be happy, Pickwick should be a sight fishing event. Toledo Bend and West Point should be good as first time Elite events. I actually fished West Point awhile back, interested to see the Pros there. Interestingly enough no Kentucky, Guntersville or West Texas fisheries, good to see they mix it up a little, but once again the lack of Northern venues is a major Buzz Kill!

Rich's love for Bass Fishing is a balance between passion and obsession! When did he start fishing? Honestly, Rich doesn't ever remember not fishing; he thanks his Dad for that. Rich has been tournament fishing for more then 15 years already & lately he been competing in BASS Weekend Series & Federation Nation events with eyes on qualifying for the Bassmasters Classic and moving up in tournament levels.
