Kevin VanDam
Even if you don't follow professional fishing, you have to admit the Angler of the Year race is getting interesting.
Kevin VanDam, often considered the world's best angler, is sitting atop the standings. Behind him are 2009 Bassmaster Classic champion Skeet Reese at No. 2 and at No. 3 is Alton Jones who won the 2008 Classic. Making it even better is the fact that the three are separated by only 70 points! To put this in perspective VanDam captured 219 points in the race's last tournament the River Rumble. Reese picked up 217 and Jones racked up 265.

Alton Jones
The race is about more that just these three anglers but they've had their current spots since April's final tournament with only three events remaining!
Is it a three way race? PROBABLY. Can someone from back in the pack surge ahead to take the crown? Anything is possible. But the way thing have been going, look for one of the three to hoist the winner's trophy in September!
