Please see Official Rules for full details.
There are three tiers for FLW Fantasy Fishing points: 2009 Walmart FLW Tour Angler of the Year Points, Bonus Points, and Exacta Points.
Angler of the Year points are the same across all FLW Tour events, but Bonus and Exacta Points depend on the specific tournament:
Lake Guntersville, 2/12-2/15/09 – double points
Table Rock Lake, 3/12-3/15/09 – single points
Lake Norman, 4/23-4/26/09 – double points
Beaver Lake, 5/14-5/17/09 – double points
Kentucky/Barkley Lake, 6/11-6/14/09 – single points
Lake Champlain, 7/9-7/12/09 – triple points
Points are recalculated each day of the tournament. Player’s Advantage members will notice this in the Real-Time Scoring section during the weigh-in on FLW Live, as they see their points change with every new weight. For those without Player’s Advantage, the daily points changes will be reflected in the final results at the end of each day’s weigh-in on www.fantasyfishing.com. So the points you have at the end of Day 1 will not be the same as the points you accumulate at the end of Day 2, or Day 3, or Day 4 – all points are variable based on the performance of your roster each day of the tournament.
TIER 1 – FLW Tour Angler of the Year Points
Anglers earn points for their finish place in each FLW Tour event. The formula for these points is: 200 points – finish place + 1.
So for a first-place finish, the score is 200 (200 – 1 + 1). For someone finishing in 100th place, the points earned is 101 (200-100+1).
Bonus points are awarded for anglers on your roster that finish anywhere in the Top 10 for a tournament.
Table Rock Lake and Kentucky/Barkley Lake (single points): 500 points are awardedfor each angler on your roster who finishes in the Top 10.
Lake Guntersville, Lake Norman and Beaver Lake (double points): 1,000 points are awarded for each angler on your roster who finishes in the Top 10.
Lake Champlain (triple points): 1,500 points are awarded for each angler on your roster who finishes in the Top 10.
TIER 3 – Exacta Points
Exacta points are awarded when you correctly rank an angler on your roster in the EXACT position they finish in the Top 10 of a tournament.
Table Rock Lake and Kentucky/Barkley Lake (single points):
1st place correct ranking – 2,000 points
2nd through 10th place correct ranking – 750 points each
Lake Guntersville, Lake Norman and Beaver Lake (double points):
1st place correct ranking – 4,000 points
2nd through 10th place correct ranking – 1,500 points each
Lake Champlain (triple points):
1st place correct ranking – 6,000 points
2nd through 10th place correct ranking – 2,250 points each
Example Roster: Lake Guntersville
