Cody Huff, currently sitting in 2nd at the Classic


Recommended Posts

I never found a money list other than first was 300,000. I assume it was like previous years. Second last year was $50,000. Money wise it doesn't live up to its billing

I think I heard on TV yesterday it was a 1.1 million dollar event. However I can't find a pay-out list other than it's 10,000 minimum.

Hamner is no kid, he is 33 years old so compared to me yes a kid but from some of the  19 to 25 year old elites this year I would not consider him a kid. Yes he is a "Scoper Whiz" but he was catching several old school. I do believe that this payout is disgusting, it cost each angler $50k just in entry fees for the season and BASS and the sponsors that are being plugged the entire time the live coverage is happening are all making huge amounts of money. This was billed as the super bowl of bass fishing and to only pay out 300k to the winner, boat 150k truck 85k to 100k 50k entry lodging fuel equipment and he might have broke even after fishing 2 years on the elite series. BASS should be ashamed of themselves.

He was mowing lawns and digging under the seat of his truck for soda money less than a year ago.   

33years old or not..... He's a kid !   😉

Compared to us yes he is a kid, but as far as the new Scoper generation is concerned he is not

Probably not.  But he darn sure wouldn't have succeeded without it.  

I think your champion would have been Hank Cherry for the 3rd time, had FFS not been a factor.  He and Lee Livesay both admitted to never turning it on, and they both finished high.
