2513 is my place of finish for the FLW Fantasy Fishing results for Guntersville. I had 4 anglers make the Top 10 in this tournament and 5643 was my point total. Last year that point total was in the Top 400 at the Norman Open and in the Top 100 at the Beaver Open. So basically I think it is safe to assume that people picked the fire out of em' for this tournament and there are a whole lot more people playing FLW Fantasy Fishing this year than there were last year.
In looking at league results it is pretty clear that there were a lot of people who picked Fritts to win and picked up those 5000 bonus points. I was beaten by a lot of people who picked Fritts to win and otherwise had weak line ups. If it were not for those Exacta bonuses my results would have been not just significantly better, but drastically better.
In the Tackle Warehouse League, which has 659 teams, the top score was 11,676. This score was achieved with just 3 anglers in the Top 10. Personally I think there is something wrong with the game when a 3 angler line up like that could beat a line up with 9 anglers in the Top 10 if there were no exacta's. It's just ridiculous that the exacta bonuses are worth what they are worth. The FLW game does not come down to who made the best picks, but who got the luckiest with improbable exacta's. The one place where I feel a hefty exacta bonus is warranted is for picking the winner. Picking the winner is impressive, just by dumb luck putting Dowling in 10th place is not. If they limited exacta's to only the Top 3 places I would be much happier.

fantasy fishing?is it like fantasy football?
Yeah it's kind of like Fantasy Football. You should check into it because the game is open to some places outside of the USA.
Feel better after your rant? LOL!!
