As a prelim to the start of this week's 3M Championship, six Champions Tour players joined six pro bass anglers and six amateurs in the first annual Pro-Am Fishing Challenge at TPC Twin Cities.

Champions Tour player Mike Hulbert teamed up with professional bass fisherman Brad Lieferman and amateur angler Steve Person to grab top honors in the event. The trio bagged a total of 96 pounds of fish. The team of Fuzzy Zoeller, professional bass fisherman Dean Capra and amateur Ron Schara was second with 71 pounds. Schara landed the day's largest fish, a six-pound bass.

Contestants in the two-hour tournament fished in two large ponds surrounding holes Nos. 14,17 and 18 with groups fishing for one hour at each pond.
