The 2022 Bassmaster Classic, which will be held at Lake Hartwell (South Carolina), March 4-6, 2018. The tournament will feature the top five most successful bass anglers over the past year. We'll also be looking at Rick Clunn Hank Cherry and Seth Feider. We will also look at past winners of the bassmaster classic to determine who has the best chance for repeating as champion.
Rick Clunn
Rick Clunn has extensive experience on the water. He won eight Bassmaster Classic championships, a record. Florida resident Rick Clunn has been participating in the tournament since 1974, and has qualified for an unprecedented 28 championships. He also has a remarkable record of 11 top-five finishes in the Classic. He holds the record of the most heaviest winning catch, 75 pounds, nine ounces.

Hank Cherry, a pro bass angler, is the latest winner of the 2022 Bassmaster Classic. He has a history of winning tournaments and is currently chasing a record-breaking third consecutive win in the Bassmaster Classic. He started his fishing career nine years ago, and is renowned for his ability to wrestle hawgs and limit creels in skinny water. The bass fishing legend has teamed up with Hobie Eyewear to create the ultimate polarized fishing sunglasses.
Paul Elias
Elias has won six tournaments in his 42-year fishing career. He invented the kneeland-reel technique to catch large bass and set the all-time record for a tournament with five limit fish during the 1982 Bassmaster Classic. Elias has also been the heavyweight champion in the Elite Series events for the past few years.
Seth Feider
Seth Feider is from Minnesota. He qualified for Bassmaster Classic through a strong finish to the Elite Series points. He made the top 25 cut on Sunday and weighed in a 5 lb 15 oz Hartwell toad on the final day. He's been a consistent performer, and should be eligible to compete for additional Angler of The Year titles in future.
Ashley Hackney
Tomorrow will see the MLF world championship tournament begin on Lake Nacogdoches (a 2,212-acre lake located in East Texas). Hackney believes that it is possible to catch trophy-size fish even though you may be catching double-digit-sized bass in these waters. As evidence, a piece of tackle left on Hackney's front porch was missing during the competition. Here's why.
Steve Kennedy
Steve Kennedy has been an extremely consistent angler when it comes to bass fishing. He has made six consecutive appearances in the Bassmaster Classic and is a three-time Century Club member. His career average bass weight of 63 pounds puts him ninth among Elite anglers. He has also fished eight Bassmaster Classics (and five Forrest Wood Cups). A slew of other bass fishing records have been set by Kennedy.

Statistics
- For most freshwater species you are most likely to target when first starting out, a reel size of 20 to 30 should be more than enough! (strikeandcatch.com)
- About 40 percent of all fish are freshwater species. (takemefishing.org)
- Coarse fishing is 100% catch and release these days. (linesonthewater.anglingtrust.net)
- To substantiate this theory, Knight attempted a systematic inquiry by considering the timing of 200 'record' catches, more than 90 percent were made during a new moon (when no moon is visible). (myfwc.com)

How To
How to Cast a Fishing Rod Perfectly
Casting a fishing pole requires that you use your wrist to guide the rod's handle toward the water. You should hold the rod at a slight angle to ensure the line is parallel with the ground. The rod should be moved forward with the tip perpendicular towards the water surface. The fish will not bite if the tip touches the water's surface prior to the line reaching the bottom. This technique will increase the distance between the rod's tip and the water surface.
If you don't feel comfortable casting a rod yet, here are some tips to make it easier.
Hold the rod as close as you can to your chest. By doing this, the rod will move in the right direction and you won't have to bend.
The tripod may be set up on the shoreline and/or on a rock edge to aid in casting a heavy-duty rod. This will allow you secure your rod and reel while keeping it in place.
A third option is to buy a smaller reel than an expensive one. A cheap spinning reel will allow you to cast longer distances and will help you develop good hand-eye coordination.
Fourth, you might also consider buying a fishing pole holder. These holders hold the rod securely and keep it upright. These holders are easy-to-store and prevent rod damage.
Fifth, practice your casting technique until you feel comfortable with the motion. Casting a fishing rod takes practice.
Sixth, patience is key to successful fishing. Waiting for the right moment is crucial. Once the strike occurs, you must work hard to reel in the fish.
