Positive Changes to Paybacks, Tournament Format, Logo Policy
MINNEAPOLIS (Oct. 6, 2010) – FLW Outdoors announced Wednesday the rules, registration dates and more for the 2011 Walmart FLW Tour.
Trisha Blake, President of FLW Outdoors Marketing Division stated, "The adjustments made to the rules for 2011 are a reflection of the open dialogue between anglers, our staff and sponsors. The modifications will benefit anglers immediately and for the long-term, and have a positive impact on everyone involved in the sport of fishing."
Anglers will be allowed to wear their own jersey when they make the cut, barring a conflict with an exclusive sponsor of FLW Outdoors and in adherence to the rules. Anglers fishing on day three will be allowed to fish out of their own boat. On day four, anglers will be required to fish out of a tournament-provided boat and will be required to have a patch on their jersey representing the sponsored boat they are fishing from. If an angler does not have a compliant jersey, FLW Outdoors will provide a jersey and allow the angler to apply compliant patches.
