Default Pictures of the launch FLW Champlain event

Here are a couple of pictures I took this morning at the day one launch of the FLW event on Lake Champlain. This one is of Takahiro Omori. There were 200 boats that went out this morning. What a sight.

Man them some ugly boats . What is the the FLW, bass??

When did they start putting all the sponsers on their boats, when I was younger I watch alot of bass fishing (all they had on tv) and I never saw boats like that. Looks like NASCAR.

Thanks for the cool pics.

Those are beautiful boats IMO. FLW is bass fishing similar to Bassmasters. They started to get the logo rapsa fewyears ago but not as much as now. This year about 3/4 of the 200 boats were wrapped in sponsorship logos. It is like Nascar and is getting to be a big spectator sport. I have been sharing the lake with many of them for the past 2 weeks while they were scouting.

Do people go out in there boats to watch them? Must be a big deal if those sponors will pay the money tohave their names on those boats.
