After many close calls, Zack Birgefinally secured his first tour-level win in his home state. He did enough every day to advance and saved his best for last, fishing near takeoff in Eufaula Cove to easily win the event. His knowledge of the fishery played a role, especially on the last day when conditions were set up perfectly for that area. “That’...
This was Drew Gill‘s third top-four finish in just four events since joining the Bass Pro Tour, and he did it by fishing with forward-facing sonar and a Neko Rig. “It was pretty simple – another Neko Rig event for me,” he said. “I was running docks and fishing the floats on the walkway, as well as pockets that had gravel. The fish were spawning aro...
California’s Skeet Reesescored his first Bass Pro Tour Top 10 since 2021 and matched his best-ever BPT finish by fishing his strengths in shallow water. After a tough practice, he figured things out and expanded on the pattern as the event progressed. “I caught one scorable on a walkway the second day of practice and another the next day in the bac...
Like all the anglers in the field, Randy Howellhad to make some significant adjustments to deal with the changing water levels. What started as a cranking bite turned into other power-fishing baits with some bedding fish mixed in as the water stabilized and got cleaner. “The first day, I caught some around rocks on a Livingston Lures Vapor 50crankb...
Nick LeBrunwas on the same shallow power fishing plan and said the key was keeping up with the changing conditions. His primary focus was water less than 3 feet deep, and he believed most fish were spawning or moving up to spawn. “Things seemed to be changing by the hour,” he said. “One day, it was all about the trees, and the next was better fishi...
Ohio’s Cole Floyd continued his run of top finishes this season and moved up to fourth in the Fishing Clash Angler of the Year Race. At Eufaula, he stuck with a shallow-water power approach that’s right in his wheelhouse. “It was a little bit of everything from a swim jig and vibrating jig to a frog,” he said. “I also caught some pitching. I was ta...
Jeff Spraguestayed shallow throughout the event, targeting cover with moving baits and pitching soft plastics. One constant was change as he changed areas and types of cover throughout the event. “It was about figuring it out on the fly because things were changing so quickly,” he said. “As the event went on, the fish went from steeper pockets to f...
After a tough first day during which he only landed two bass, Luke Clausencompletely switched things up. His decision to abandon everything he found in practice and start somewhere new allowed him to score a Top-10 finish. Focusing on the Longtown area, Clausen had plenty of space. “During the Knockout Round, 19 boats went the other way through the...
Although he struggled a bit on the final day, Martin Villawas on a tear early in the event, including leading his group after a day of fishing. This allowed him to scout for new areas as he coasted into the Knockout Round. He changed with the fish each day, focusing on rocks and different kinds of bushes and trees. “At the beginning of the event, m...
On the final day, Britt Myersbucked the trend a bit and relied on his Garmin LiveScope in slightly deeper water. He targeted cruising fish and those related to isolated cover. “Some of them were on rocks, some on stumps or laydowns, and some fish were hanging around little rough patches of rock away from everything,” he said. “I think these fish we...
