GALLERY: Day 1 of The Champions blasts off on Old Hickory Lake

HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. – Who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned shotgun start to kick off the richest tournament in bass-fishing history?. Thirty anglers from the Bass Pro Tour and 30 from the Elite Series left Sanders Ferry Park this morning with one big goal in mind: advance to Saturday’s final for a shot at a $1.25 million payday. The Champions by World Bass Enterprises will feature three days of competition on a fishery that, by all practice reports, is fishing stingy. Dock talk suggests that 12 pounds a day will go a long ways in securing a spot in the final 15.
