By WNews 1 Min Read

Kenora, Ont.’s Jeff Gustafson — Gussy to his friends and fans — has done what no other Canadian angler has ever done.

On Sunday, Gustafson won the Bassmaster Classic in Knoxville, Tenn., an event that’s often called the Super Bowl of professional bass fishing.

Gustafson led handily going into the third and final day Sunday, and it looked as if he might have an easy ride to the championship.

If no one takes kids fishing, they’re never going to go. So take your kids, your neighbour’s kids, your buddy’s kids, and dreams can come true.- Jeff Gustafson, Kenora, Ont., angler
