Local knowledge in bass tournaments can often be a mixed blessing. Competitors experience the positives but all too often the negatives associated with familiarity of a fishery.
Earlier in the year, Lindsay, also a B.A.S.S. Open competitor, boated a 7.30 largemouth followed quickly on the same day by a 5.1 and a 4.9, a three-fish trifecta as big as anything seen lately on Martin.
Grant McCraney, a newcomer to Alabama B.A.S.S. Nation (ABN) adult-division tournaments, knew he was on the fish to win Saturday on Lake Eufaula. He just did not anticipate how much the bite would change from one day to the next.
Billy Black, from Monroeville, capitalized on a good pre-fishing find and topped a big boater field with a 19.29 five-fish limit. He traveled a little farther than second-place finisher Dwayne Sanford, from the Alexander City area.
The young fisherman from Pell City, who has excelled at every level of competitive fishing, has been on a roll in recent weeks, traveling extensively and competing well in various high-level tournaments.
Anglers associated with the Auburn University fishing team have long been a prominent force in Alabama B.A.S.S. Nation (ABN) events.
Co-anglers are at the mercy of their boaters in fishing tournaments. Boaters occasionally concentrate their efforts on catching bass to such an extent that their back-of-the-boat anglers are left to make random casts to fish-less waters.
