Big Fred heads for Texas & first FLW Wal-Mart Tour event

After the tournament in Florida’s Lake Okeechobee last month, our man Big Fred Contaoi, “The Bass Pimp,” pointed his home on wheels to the West and is now harassing the bass in Texas’s Lake Travis (near Austin).

His next tourney (Feb. 15-18) is the first regular-season event in the FLW Wal-Mart pro tour and has a first place purse of $125,000. He’ll be competing against 200 pros from all over the world, so it’s not going to be easy, but we’ve got faith in Big Fred.

This nice largemouth is one he caught while practicing the other day…hey, man, save those for the tourney!

As always, we’ll keep you posted on Big Fred’s exploits. Stay tuned!
