Casts from the Past: Hank Parker's two Bassmaster Classic wins 

Great video gentlemen! I always enjoyed Hanks show and admired his faith and ability to teach. My youngest son of three won the Casting Kids competition for Wisconsin about 25 years ago and we flew to Mobil AL to compete again. He unfortunately learned that practice is important when competing against other kids from across the nation. He has a family and his own boat now and we all enjoy fishing for all the species in Wisconsin.

Hank Parker is the greatest. What an ambassador for the sport. This was awesome.

love these old videos. these dudes would still whoop my ass back then. crazy

Love ya Hank. God bless you.

I loved this!! Great interview with a class act. One of the Greats of fishing Hank Parker.

I still have a hank Parker spinner bait never been opened!!!!!!

Great job hank then an now an no better human in this world..If I learn as much as he's forgotten I'll be a great Fisherman .. thanks for everything you've done for the sport of fishing

I love these videos and hearing all the B.A.S.S. history. Thank you so much, B.A.S.S., Ronnie, Tommy, and Hank. I mean NO DISRESPECT with a few corrections... 2:17 It's J B Warren (not Edwards). Also, the 1979 Classic was held in September, not October. Also, Hank won his Super B.A.S.S. tournament in April 1985. At 20:19 (and repeated a few minutes later), incorrect information is given. Hank did not lose the Super B.A.S.S. tournament to Gary Klein the year before Hank won it. The tournament Hank is thinking of, where he lost to Klein, was not called Super B.A.S.S. It was the Georgia Invitational, held in December of 1985, (AFTER Hank's Super B.A.S.S. win) and Hank lost to Klein by two, not one, ounces.

I think Hanks owned that shirt for a hundred yrs.....I've seen it in all of his recent shows as well

He retired pretty young. May have won a few more. A lot of guys fish well into there 50s.

They said all the big names but, Roland Martin looks like he was there also.

the first pro I followed. pulled that ranger boat with a car.

That’s crazy. They are using a grocery store scale to weigh the bass.
