Description
Rick Clunn opens up about his 50 year pursuit of happiness. Sure he is a 4-time Bassmaster Classic Champion, 16-time Bassmaster winner, 32-time Classic Qualifier & a former Bassmaster AOY. Beyond all of those trophies and accolades, Rick Clunn is an absolute anomaly. What he is doing in fishing is not happening in any other sport or competitive activity on earth. At 77 years old he will kick off his 50th season competing at the top level of the sport. At a time that may be more dominated by young anglers than ever before, Rick Clunn is 5 decades into his legendary career. His incredible influence is seen in every single pro fishing today. Clunn is not only a driven competitor but his silent approach and down-to-earth outlook on life has almost turned him into a mystical character in the eyes of many. Rick Clunn is a unicorn. When tournaments are over he disappears into the tranquility and beauty of the Ozark Mountains. But this week for our first episode of 2024 Rick joins us for a very rare, very open and very candid conversation.
