At the end of the season 20 anglers participated in the two day CLASSIC. 

Chris Hannegan went into The Classic with a lead in trail points, but several anglers including Brock Spencer, Reece Stoughton, Shawn Skidmore were still within striking distance and Dick Nauta was still not mathematically eliminated.

​

The format for The Classic in 2021 changed to a two day event on Clendening Lake.

Day 1 saw 20 anglers catch 36 fish and Shawn Skidmore and Matt Davis as the only two anglers posting a 5 fish limit. 

Shawn's 72.5" total led the way with Matt Davis only 1.5" behind.  The rest of the field had a lot of work to do to catch up on Day 2 including anglers in the hunt for not only the Classic title, but also the AOY as now Shawn had a lead in both.  Day 2 saw 30 fish caught and the 2020 Classic Champ, Darrell Cornelius, had the largest bag with 79.5"  In the end Shawn Skidmore posted another 5 fish limit (77.25") and swept both the Classic and the 2021 Angler of the Year titles.  The final standings can be found HERE.
