Hank Parker is a well-known professional bass fisherman in the United States.
In 1979 and again in 1989, the native of Maiden, North Carolina won the Bassmaster Classic, the biggest event in his sport. He is one of only four anglers to win the event more than once. Additionally, he was the first angler to win the Grand Slam of competitive bass fishing which includes the Classic, B.A.S.S. Angler of the Year and B.A.S.S. SuperBass Tournament. Hank finished in the money in 76% of B.A.S.S. tournaments he fished. He was inducted into the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame in 2003 and the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame in 2006.
For 26 years, Parker has hosted Hank Parker's Outdoor Magazine. The program now airs on NBC Sports Network and Pursuit Channel; it has previously aired on Versus, ESPN and TNN, The Nashville Network. He was also featured as an opponent in the video game released for the Super Nintendo entitled "Bassin's Black Bass with Hank Parker." In the game, the player must earn their way onto the pro bass fishing tour, where they compete against Parker.
Parker lives in Union County, South Carolina. [More at Wikipedia]
