Fantasy Fishing League

[Swamp_Fox]

Not only has professional fishing grown so spectacularly that last year's leading money winner earned $547,000, but popular "fantasy fishing" leagues, resembling fantasy baseball and football, employ elaborate statistical breakdowns of fishing tournaments to help players pick winners, according to a July Wall Street Journal report. "Average weight per fish (caught) over careers," "margin of victory (in pounds)," and other data points are plotted by players, along with weather reports, depth and temperature of tournament lakes, and intangibles such as "home-lake curse." The organization FLW Outdoors estimates 40,000 fantasy players, many of whom have never actually fished. [Wall Street Journal, 7-20-06]

That really is sick.

So, in other words, Triton didn't do so well with his fantasy fishing league picks this year.

Fishing is not supposed to be a spectators sport imo. I have put up some pretty impressive stats this year though.

I was doing alright until the fiasco at Truman about 3 weeks ago.....
