Anyone keep up with the FLW Championship last week?  After Glenn Chappelear, Mark Rose, and Scott Martin helped us with our Haughton Outdoors Tournament, I cheered them on all season.  Glenn had one of his best years ever and qualified for the Championship.  Mark finished 2nd here on Red River, had several other good tourney's and a 1st, then finished 3rd in the Championship.  Scott won the Championship!  $600,000 !!!

On stage at the final weighin, broadcast on FLW Live, Mark gave all the glory to God and thanked FLW for allowing the anglers to keep God a priority, when so many other corporations won't have anything to do with public recognition.

After receiving the trophy and $600,000 check Scott had this to say. "I've got the FLW Trophy in one hand, and a check for $600,000 in my pocket.  But I want everyone to know that 10 years ago I received something of much greater value when I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour"!


I"ll say it again, these guys are the real deal!

Great guys and I'm glad somebody that wins their biggest tournament stood up and gave God the glory for everything. Without him we're nothing! Congrats to Scott, nobody deserves it more

I agree.  It's good to see them letting everyone know that God is overall, in their everyday lives.  Shows us that we can all do the same.
