PHOENIX — The Fishing League Worldwide organization announced its angler roster for the upcoming tour in 2019.
Among 170 professional anglers, Kevin Finley of Phoenix will compete in his first season on the bass-fishing tour. He will be joined by 33 other first-timers from around the country.
The 24th season of the FLW Tour is set to begin on Jan. 10 at Sam Rayburn Reservoir in Brookeland, TX.
The tour features seven regular-season tournaments around the country, awarding the winner of each event $125,000 and $300,000 to the winner of the FLW Cup.
“FLW has long been the home to some of the most decorated bass anglers in the sport,” Bill Taylor, FLW’s Senior Director of Tournament Operations said.
“And with the expanded live coverage at all of our Tour events this year, we are more than ready to show off their skills at some of the best fisheries in the world.”
