Yes, there is such a thing as fantasy fishing. And you can win a million dollars. And you don't have to pay an entry fee. Before each of the six regular-season tournaments for the FLW Tour — the largest pro bass-fishing circuit in the U.S. — you pick 10 anglers at fantasyfishing.com. The better your picks do, the more points you rack up. And you get a hefty bonus for an exacta (if your pick for first, second, third, etc., matches the tournament ranking). The winner of each tournament gets $100,000. Whoever piles up the most points over all six tournaments wins the million. That's quite a nice catch. The first tournament starts on Feb. 12 on Lake Guntersville in Huntsville, Ala.
