This is interesting stuff ~

 

To many, KVD is often thought of as one of the best of all time - and no doubt he's been pretty dominant.

 

But a review of this list reminds one rather quickly that The Zen Master, Rick Clunn - is no slouch.

um... yer just talkin about arguably the two best tournament fishermen in the last 20-years or so thats all..

Clunn and KVD

between these two guys you have all you need to know about catchin bass at a fast clip and in all conditions

I would also toss in the name of Ronald Martian..... 9 AOYs this is crazy the classic is only one tournament (do not get me wrong it is the hardest to win and is a GREAT win) but the AOY is an culmination of all the tournaments.  You have to be consistently in the top 20/ top 10 or even higher to win it.    

Wow the 1997 classic was won by 1 ounce! I didn't know that...  I would be so sad to lose by one ounce haha

I'm just happy that I'm not ten years older, or I'd have a few of those fishing jumpsuits stuffed in the back of my closet!

For Clunn you are talking about 40 years.....he was the guy i liked as a kid watching fishing shows early on saturday mornings.  Still is my favorite angler, him and Paul Elias.
