It was only a matter of time, right? Arguably the best angler in our sport (more on that later), Bryan Thrift had accomplished nearly everything he could with FLW. He’d won two Angler of the Year titles, six tour events, five Costas and set a multitude of records. Yet, he’d never won the FLW Cup

Bolton Breaks Through at Rayburn
Terry Bolton nearly quit tournament fishing after 23 years without a major victory. Good thing he decided to give it a 24th shot. Buoyed by a behemoth 33-pound, 9-ounce bag on day two of the FLW Tour opener on Sam Rayburn, Bolton finally hoisted to trophy he’s long chased. He did the bulk of his

John Murray and Scott Martin both started their professional careers around the same time (Murray’s first full season was 2001, while Martin started in 1999). Yet, their careers have progressed on two different roads. Martin has established himself as one of the
Wheeler’s Hot Streak Takes Cherokee
A week ago we mentioned how the likes of Bryan Thrift and Andy Morgan were on 12-month hot streaks that were unmatched. Well, Jacob Wheeler didn’t just match theirs; he surpassed them! By winning the BASS Elite Series opener on Cherokee Lake, the 26-year-old jumped his 12-month average to 890.061. Meaning, in the last 12
