Man Wins Fishing Tournament After 16 Years

You gotta love any underdog story. After working 16 years to win the tournament, he walks away with just over $100,000. An amount that would change anyone's life, at least anyone who's ever stepped foot in an Applebee's (shamefully raises hand).

From the Article:

"In one of the most dramatic finishes in recent FLW Tour history, fourth-year FLW Tour pro Brian Latimer of Belton, South Carolina, brought a five-bass limit to the scale weighing 21 pounds, 3 ounces to win the FLW Tour at Lake Seminole presented by Costa Sunday and the first-place prize of $100,000.

Latimer's four-day total of 20 bass totaling 80 pounds, 15 ounces edged out Day One leader Braxton Setzer of Montgomery, Alabama (78-14), who finished second and 21-year-old pro Sheldon Collings of Grove, Oklahoma (76-2), in third place."
