MINNEAPOLIS (Sept. 15, 2011) – FLW Outdoors today announced the 2012 EverStart Series schedule. The EverStart Series will again consist of five divisions – Central, Northern, Southeast, Texas and Western – with four qualifying events per division culminating in the no-entry-fee EverStart Series Championship Nov. 1-4 on the Ouachita River in Monroe, La. Pros will be competing for $35,000, and co-anglers will be vying for a new Ranger 177TR with a 90-horsepower outboard in every qualifier. If the angler is Ranger Cup qualified, the winning pro will also receive a new Ranger Z518 with a 200-horsepower outboard and the co-angler will receive an additional $5,000 in each regular-season tournament.
“As a stepping stone to the Walmart FLW Tour, the EverStart Series is an extremely popular circuit that offers anglers the opportunity to test their skills on a variety of fisheries,” said Kathy Fennel, President of FLW Outdoors Operations Division. “We are looking forward to another outstanding season of competition on some fantastic fisheries.”
