Fishing-Geeks

Fishing is not only a hobby, it is a sport for some. And you may be surprised that some people have to do more than make a big catch, such as the case of David Cooper at the Bassmasters Open Series. After three tie-breakers, Cooper was able to beat Jeff Wade thanks to the 3rd tie breaker which called for the one who had the most pounds. Cooper showed that he caught a total of 13 pounds in a day compared to Wade’s 8 which handed him championship that sent chills up his spine. After the smoke cleared, Cooper was the best fisher, at least for this tournament.
