I have wondered where all the money the FLW pays out comes from. I know some is from sponsors but after seeing the pay back at this years Mountain division is it obvious. Man What a rip!!! With 157 boats they took in 47,100 dollars in entry fees. They paid out 21,405 on the boaters side and 10,937 on the co anglers side. So they kept 14,738 dollars plus of course the membership fees..............314 times 25 another 7850 dollars ......
Well to each his own. So the little guy is footing the bill once again so the big guns can do what they do !!!!!! The grass roots for the bfl was the weekend angler,, that is a joke the ones now that are there every time knocking on the door to win either have their own business so they can afford to miss work to fish all week or they are retired. Oh well lord willing and I live long enough maybe that is my retirement plans lol......
