column in his local newspaper; lynne also was hired as a staff writer.
One of the truly unique features of MLF is that it is a joint venture between professional anglers and The outdoor Channel. The anglers are very much a partner in the success (or failure) of this project, so they were all completely invested in it.
MLF is a new competitive fishing format that is ; at its purest form, a fishing reality show. There had been some speculation before the event was set to begin that MlF was a new tournament trail, but it is most assuredly a television show.
The format pits 24 of the sport’s best anglers on lake amistad, fishing in zones on the U.S. side of the lake out of identically rigged 17.5 to 18.5-foot Nitro and Bass Cat boats powered by Mercury Pro XS 150 outboards and 109-pound thrust MotorGuide trolling motors. each boat had a Power Pole Pro Series shallow water anchor and lowrance electronics.
Each boat had its own satellite WiFi network that powered the iPad scoring that each official used to input the weights of each fish caught and notify their angler of every other angler’s position in the standings.
Fishing days were divided into three, two and a half hour periods and on the three elimination days the field was cut to a total of 12 anglers into the sudden death semi-final round.
The sudden death round was unique. The producers averaged all three weights of the second place finishers and added two pounds to make a total of 40 pounds. The first two anglers on each sudden death semi-final round to reach that weight moved on to the final round; four anglers made the finals.

I cannot compare the intensity of the event to any regular season professional tour event - the format created stress levels more equal to a tour Championship, and if half of the intensity from the water was captured; it will be an amazing show.
The pay-per-view will cost $2.99 an episode on the Major league Fishing website. it should be a lot of fun, and give us a unique view into the minds of pro anglers as they try to unlock the lake without any practice. They truly employed all of their skills in unlocking lake amistad in the moment, and in the end when… oops; i almost slipped up and gave it away.
