Has FLW published a list of Pros entered for the 2016 season yet?

not that I know, have just seen on Bass Fan and BASS etc who isn't doing it.

Around here Biggs and Dalby sitting out, Reehm in, Redington in.

McMillan turned down BASS in favor of FLW.

Sprague got sponsorship from Keystone for FLW.

Lefebre, Avena, Clent Davis, and Clausen all switching to BASS.

Shad Schenck retired.

Hopefully I can fish it again in 2 years. It will be hard sitting out but doing these teaching trips are filling the void pretty well. Good luck to all the locals fishing it next year. Watch out for Reddington with a couple of TVA stops on the schedule.

anxious to see you back out there James.

Thanks Rob. It looked like you had a good time with Rheem on Rayburn fish with a FLW pro.

Mike Kernan will be with FLW this year.

According to Bass Zone - Kurt Dove is fishing the FLW Tour also.

I guess it shows that between McMillan and Dove that the "qualification" process with FLW is still loose with sponsor or "other" exemptions or FLW still had spots available. Not a big deal either way and hope the Texas guys do well.

Kick some a77 Mike.

Mike and Kurt are both great guys. Wish them well this year!

I am thinking my friend Anthony Gagliardi will take Angler of the Year again.
