The field for the 2015 Forrest Wood Cup is now full.
With the completion of the Potomac River FLW Tour today, the final berths for the event at Lake Ouachita in August have been determined. The only drama surrounding today was whether Darrel Robertson could win at the Potomac because that would’ve given him enough points to tie Clent Davis for the final Cup berth via the points standings.
Tiebreakers related to total season weight and fish caught would’ve been used to resolve the tie, but Robertson wound up 4th and Davis is the last man in the Cup. There were four double-qualifiers – Anthony Gagliardi, Andy Morgan, Zack Birge and Bryan Thrift – this year, meaning those whose finished 36th through 39th in points earned a trip to Arkansas in August.
