Last fall, Drew Gill passed $1 million in earnings to supplant Michael Bennett as the youngest bass-fishing millionaire with MLF/FLW. He's now been passed for the record by Banks Shaw , who hit the $1 million mark when he finished third in Stop 6 Presented by VOSKER at Lake Champlain , and also banked $50,000 for his 7 Brew Angler of the Year win. Just five months younger than Gill was when he set the bar, Shaw is in the midst of his second truly superb year in a row, still taking classes at the University of North Alabama, and he shows no signs of slowing down.
