Mike Reynolds Wins!

(Editor's note: For some reason the final rookie race standings were not posted until today. Apologies for the error.)

FLW Tour rookie standout Matt Herren didn't have a Top 11 finish at Wheeler Lake, so the 2003 BassFan Rookie of the Year is Bassmaster Tour rookie Mike Reynolds. He squeaks out the win by less than a point over fellow BASS rookie Jeff Reynolds of Oklahoma.

Other notable movement after the Wheeler FLW included:

> Oklahoma's Tim Carroll moved up 3 places to 12th. Carroll was a two-tour rookie this year, and though he didn't do well on the Bassmaster Tour, he finished an amazing 5th in the FLW Tour points.

> Texas FLW rookie Chris McCall jumped from 22nd to 14th after the Wheeler FLW, thanks to a 28th-place finish there.

> Arkansas FLW rookie Brennan Bosley finished 150th at Wheeler and dropped from 12th to 25th in the rookie race standings.

About the ROY Race
The BassFan Rookie of the Year Race/Award recognizes the best rookie in all of tour-level professional fishing for the current year or season. Unlike the league rookie races, only true rookies are eligible: To qualify as a rookie for the BassFan race, a tour angler cannot have fished the pro (boater) side of any Bassmaster or FLW tour/series-level event before.

  • BassFan Rookie of the Year Race points are calculated using a methodology loosely similar to the BassFan World Rankings (points based on finish with bonuses given for winning and finishing high). Only regular-season events count. Championships do not.
     
  • The BassFan Rookie of the Year Race was created in 2002 as the first rookie race in professional bass fishing. Like Rookie of the Year awards in all sports, it recognizes top-performing newcomers to the professional ranks.

Everything on BassFan.com, including BassFan Radio and the various BassFan ranking methodologies, is copyright BassFan LLC except where noted (notably photo credits). Members of accredited media may use BassFan content with few restrictions (see the Media Center page for more details).
