WILLIMON WINS WALMART BASS FISHING LEAGUE EVENT ON LAKE HARTWELL


SENECA, S.C. (Oct. 5, 2009) – Greg Willimon of Pickens, S.C., won the Walmart Bass Fishing League® South Carolina Division two-day Super Tournament on Lake Hartwell Sunday with a two-day total of 10 bass weighing 36 pounds, 1 ounce. The victory earned Willimon $4,943.

Willimon said he caught his fish in the lower section of the lake fishing a Super Fluke in schooling fish over 80 feet of water.

Rounding out the top five boaters are Marty Robinson of Lyman, S.C. (10 bass, 29-4, $2,471); Joey Sabbagha of Little Mountain, S.C. (10 bass, 28-5, $1,648); Brad Fowler of Pendleton, S.C. (10 bass, 27-14, $1,153) and Blake Campbell of Anderson, S.C. (10 bass, 27-8, $989).

Campbell won the Boater Division Folgers Big Bass award and earned $607 for a 6-pound, 4-ounce bass.

Greg Glouse of Easley, S.C., earned $2,471 as the co-angler winner Sunday thanks to a two-day catch of 10 bass weighing 21 pounds, 7 ounces.

Glouse said he caught his fish on a drop-shot rig and a soft-plastic jerkbait on the lower lake.

Rounding out the top five co-anglers are Joel Wood of Union, S.C. (nine bass, 17-15, $1,236); John Cook of Matthews, N.C. (10 bass, 17-9, $822); Russell Steen of Hartsville, S.C. (10 bass, 16-6, $577); and Marc Marsh of Cheraw, S.C. (seven bass, 15-2, $494).

Charles Wood of Thomasville, N.C., earned $304 as the co-angler Folgers Big Bass winner after catching a 4-pound, 10-ounce bass.

The top 40 boaters and 40 co-anglers in each of the BFL’s 28 divisions at the end of the season advance to a no-entry-fee Regional Championship where boaters fish for a new Ranger boat and a Chevy truck and co-anglers fish for a new Ranger boat. Seven regional championships will each send six boaters and six co-anglers to the no-entry-fee Walmart BFL All-American presented by Chevy, which features a $1 million purse and a top award of $140,000 in the Boater Division and $70,000 in the Co-angler Division. Anglers who compete in all five regular-season events within a division but do not advance to a Regional Championship are eligible to compete in the Chevy Wild Card, which will also send six boaters and six co-anglers to the All-American for a total of 48 boaters and 48 co-anglers advancing through BFL competition.

The winning boater and winning co-angler at the All-American will advance to the no-entry-fee Forrest Wood Cup in Atlanta in 2010. This event, featuring a top award of $1 million, is the most lucrative tournament in all of competitive bass fishing. In all, the BFL offers weekend anglers the opportunity to qualify for three no-entry-fee championships with total cash awards exceeding $3.5 million. Plus, the top 40 boaters and 40 co-anglers from each BFL division may move up to the Stren Series™ for 2010 while All-American champions have the option to advance directly to the Walmart FLW Tour®.

In BFL competition, boaters supply the boat and compete from the front deck against other boaters. Co-anglers compete from the back deck against other co-anglers.

As the nation’s leading provider of affordable, close-to-home weekend tournaments, the BFL is widely credited with opening competitive bass fishing to the masses. It also serves as a steppingstone for anglers who wish to advance to the Stren Series and ultimately the FLW Tour – bass fishing’s most lucrative tournament circuit.
