Four fishermen withdraw from FLW
Four professional bass anglers have withdrawn from the FLW Tour in recent weeks.
On April 7, Guido Hibdon and Payden Hibdon, both of Sunrise Beach, Mo., withdrew from the four FLW events remaining in the season, citing lack of sponsorship money. Bradley Hallman of Norman, Okla., and Jeremy Starks of Scott Depot, W.Va., filled their slots, but Hallman withdrew. Jim Dillard of West Monroe, La., replaced him.
Van Soles of Haines City, Fla., withdrew from the FLW Tour on April 17. Joe Gerard of Concordia, Kan., from FLW’s Rayovac Series, replaced him.
