Since its inception, I’ve had the opportunity to marshal at least two B.A.S.S. tournaments a year. Participating as a marshal gives me the chance to travel to beautiful locations and meet not only the well-known, professional fishermen, but the “up and comers” on the circuit too.
Hands down, my favorite “cool” marshal moment was at the St. Johns River tournament in 2016. On the second day of the tournament, I had the honor of marshaling for one of the sport’s legends – Rick Clunn. Thinking it couldn’t get any better than that, Day 3 found me paired with ANOTHER superstar, Kevin VanDam!
Meeting and marshaling for these awesome pros, at the same tournament, was by far the best experience I’ve had as a B.A.S.S. Marshal.
