Jordan Lee , X Auburn fishing team member, just won the Bassmaster Classic for the second consecutive year. For those that don't know, the Classic is the Super Bowl of tournament bass fishing.
Only a few fishermen have ever won back to back classics. He was also the youngest person to win the classic last year.
WDE Jordan. He just put another 2 million in his pocket...

How the hell does bass fishing have that big of a payout?

His payout is 500K. The championship will bring him another 1.5 mil...
Do you have any idea how many people fish and are involved in tournament fishing?

Honestly no, but, willing to learn.

Did he finish strong?
If so, we know Gus or Bruce weren't giving him pointers!

Actually, he was the anti-Bruce/Gus. Came from 5 pounds behind, normally impossible to overcome, to win on the last day

Bass fishing may be the most pure form of sports marketing there is. Whatever rod/reel/cranks/soft plastics Jordan Lee says he was using will almost definitely see their sales go through the roof over the next few weeks.

You left out the big move by his brother Matt to finish in the top 5. Also, Auburn is currently ranked 3rd in the College of the Year standings put out by Abu Garcia. 2nd is my other favorite school, University on North Alabama.

Had a bunch of guys from the Auburn team in my booth on Saturday. We had conversations. Things got passed around

We will fish against them occasionally in the Federation Nation here in Alabama. They offer discount entry for the high school and college kids.
