I'm a Bassmaster guy.....nothing against FLW (watch that too) just seem to gravitate towards the guys in Bass more. In a tournament with the top ten from each how do you think it would turn out. Has there ever been a tournament like that Bass against FLW

Tharp went over to BASS because he said he wanted to compete against the very bets.

BASS because of Ray Scott and all the oldies but goodies that fished it over the years. Guido and Dion Hibdon, David Fritz, Rick Clunn, George Cochran, Jimmy Houston, Roland Martin, Ron Shefield, Larry Nixon, Denny Brauer, Tommy Martin, Davey Hite, and the list goes on. That being said a lot of these guys have competed in FLW too. I hope to fish both circuits eventually either as amateur or pro......

Major league fishing puts some of the best from each against each other so that's cool to watch.
But the top ten from each is very good.
Tharp didn't exactly say he went there to fish against the best he said he fished against van dam and someone else 3 times and they beat him twice so he's going out to beat them specifically. Kinda the same thig but not exactly.

I took some of the FLW guys this week in the BASS Fantasy and did pretty well. Took me to 95%

BASS. One win in the opens and your classic bound. Yet i like the FLW in payout perspective.

Just like any tournament, it would depend on the lake, conditions, etc... The top ten out of either the Elite or FLW Tour are capable of winning on any given day pretty much anywhere in the country.

I think the top 10 FLW guys are better. But who really knows. Isn't the FLW cup a larger payout now?

It's a toss up if you ask me. Both have amazing fisherman. Like others said one can beat the other one day, and the other way around the next.

FLW has better payouts. From what I have seen and heard if u want more money per tournament FLW gets the nod. But they don't allow as much individual sponsorship opportunities like BASS does. So it just depends if u don't have a bunch of sponsors paying u to advertise then FLW is better if u have a bunch of good sponsors supporting u BASS makes more sense. But both have very good anglers
