I have been wondering what kinda serious coin it would cost to fish all of the events, gas, hotel and entries?

Entry $25,800 for 6 events, Buy a truck camper stay in state parks probably $3,500.
Fuel $12,000 depending on practice and distance you run per day. Food what it cost you now, you got to eat. Brake equipment, repairs to boat add 15 grand might cover the cost. So to be safe to say it would cost in the neighborhood of about.

$57,000 give or take a few grand

If you don't pre practice & are cheap like me, you can fish for $40,000-43,000. You will have to cut 4 checks in 6 events against the best in the world on lakes you don't know to break even. Keep that in mind. Odds are not in the new touring anglers favor. That being said if it's your dream to try it if go for it. I really like the staff at FLW.

Well, since two people have already answered you, one at an estimated $57k & the other actually fishing the tour claiming to be able to do it in the low $40k's...
