NBC's Today Show makes a stop in our own back yard. Co-anchor, Jenna Wolfe spent a day on our local water with fishing pro Justin Lucas. Justin Lucas who fished the FLW National Guard Team, escorted Jenna out on the San Joaquin Delta for her introduction to the sport of bass fishing. The video can be viewed at FLW Outdoors.
The FLW, named after the developer of Ranger Boats, Forrest L. Woods, is touted as the largest fishing tournament series, the first to offer a $ 1 million dollar payday to its winner and the operator of FLW Fantasy Fishing. The FLW National Guard circuit will visit the San Joaquin Delta again on June 9-12 of 2010. The entire FLW 2010 schedule has been announced.
