A Lot Going On This Year!

A summer event for Walmart

     Not the least of which is the fact that the Rayovac FLW Series Championship Tournament about to start, but Matt has been a very busy angler.  Between tournaments and filming for a Television show, he’s landed his own keeper at home!  Or, did he get hooked himself?

     After having his 2014 season cut short with knee surgery, Matt fished all three 2015 Central Division Rayovac FLW Series and is qualified for the Championship Tournament held Oct. 29-31 on the Ohio River out of Paducah, KY.  “I finished 34th in points in the FLW Rayovac Central Division,” Matt says, with a total of 558 points in the standings.  This is Matt’s first full year on the trail and first time to qualify for the FLW Series Championship Tournament.  The Central Division sent their Top 40 qualifying Pro’s to the Championship event, where the Top Pro from each division, and the Top 5 in overall standings, will qualify for the 2016 Forrest Wood Cup, the highest level of all FLW Tournaments.

     Meanwhile, Matt was asked to be a guest on Lunkerville TV and met in Denver with the show’s host, Mike D. to fish a local lake and film a 2-part show which is scheduled to air early 2016.  “We had an amazing time, catching them on anything we threw,” Matt says.  “I caught fish on a prototype bait that Ron Mayer from Head Turner Custom Lures is making, a 6” wood rat with a 5” tail.”
The Happy Couple
     Best of all and definitely a great way to cap off a good season, Matt says, “I’ve had a great year! I got married September 25th to the girl of my dreams!” Congrats to Matt and Teresa Massey!  The new Team Massey couple honeymooned in Belize, and yes, there was some time set aside to go fishing.
