Auten is a true journey man, 25 years in and he averages around $26K a year in earnings. He is one of the guys that is truly fishing to pay the bills and doesn't have that gear to sacrifice the rent check to possibly win. You say, "You need to have a brand to get the camera time.". but if he can make a living earning $26K a year in tournament earnings, he's doing ok in the sponsor game.

Or he has another income source. I rode with him on Fork. Did not talk about making a living. A number of them have a business or their wife covers the week to week steady income and insurance.

Swindle pulled it out in the last 30 minutes with 2 fish that culled. Sitting in 4th 4-6 out of the lead. It’s doable. Probably would need 16# and help.

I think it’s a race between the top 3, probably be Mueller again, he sure has capitalized since the split.

Mueller to me has to be the guy I would bank on. He has been steady and his way of fishing lends to finding more fish tomorrow.
Of course you will have those from 4th and down going for broke. They will either make a run toward the top of sink down. Steady as she goes will not win it for them.

Let me play Bassmaster commentator...”the angler that figures out day 4, will be your winner”.... hammer


Still pulling for Swindle, glad he had that last 30 min squeaker. I won’t watch tomorrow, so I can’t jinx him.

whip oh no you don’t, after all the hell you gave Swindle on BBC about “not doing well in tournaments”, you better be cheering him on.

7 Top 10’s in the last 13 tournaments (I’ve included this tournament), dating back to the St Lawrence River last July. That’s stout.
