FLW PHOENIX BONUS Announced for 2020

New program rewards FLW anglers with huge payouts

Phoenix Boats has announced the creation and details of the brand new FLW PHOENIX BONUS for the 2020 FLW tournament season. The FLW PHOENIX BONUS program is designed to reward Phoenix Boats owners for their performance in Phoenix Bass Fishing League, FLW Pro Circuit and FLW Series events. This enhances the recently announced partnership where Phoenix Boats became the exclusive boat sponsor of FLW and brings more opportunities to the anglers. The payouts in this exciting new program are substantial, making it one of the best contingency programs in tournament bass fishing.

Registration for the FLW PHOENIX BONUS program costs $19.95. Once registered, anglers will receive a Phoenix decal and membership card, which should be brought to qualifying events. The FLW PHOENIX BONUS is an independent program and separate from Phoenix First Flight, and while some guidelines will cross over between the two programs, they are not one and the same. In addition to higher payouts for Phoenix Bass Fishing League and FLW Series tournaments, the FLW PHOENIX BONUS program will also be paying the highest-finishing qualified Phoenix Boats owner if the winner of the tournament is not a qualified Phoenix Boat owner.

Payout structure

Payout at the Phoenix Bass Fishing League level varies depending on model year, horsepower and if the winner is an original Phoenix owner or not. For FLW Pro Circuit and FLW Series events the payout to the winner is $35,000 if they are the original owner of a 2016 or newer model-year Phoenix. For FLW Series events, if the event is won by a non-Phoenix owner, the highest-finisher bonus is $1,000.

The payout structure at Phoenix Bass Fishing League events is below: 

 2017 or Older Model Year OR Non-Original Owner

Participating FLW tournament trails (boaters only)

FLW Series regular-season events
