Bethel University Claims Day 1 Lead At Bassmaster College Series National Championship

WADDINGTON, N.Y. — With the help of a 6-pound smallmouth, the Bethel University duo of Tristan McCormick and Stevie Mills caught a five-bass limit that weighed 24 pounds, 9 ounces to claim the Day 1 lead at the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship presented by Bass Pro Shops at the St. Lawrence River.

McCormick and Mills hold a 13-ounce lead over the second-place team of Hunter Bond and GL Compton from Clemson University.

“Our main goal was to go out there and have fun and let the chips fall where they may,” McCormick said. “It was unbelievable. It was a superblessed day. The Lord works in mysterious ways because the last thing we expected was to do that. We are superexcited to get back out there tomorrow and see what happens.”

During their official practice time, Mills and McCormick caught plenty of 2-pound fish in a specific area but had no confidence heading into the event that they would be able to catch big ones.

So, when they reached the area Thursday, they were pleasantly surprised to find the quality had improved.

“We caught two pretty quickly, 2 1/2-pounders, and then we caught a big one. And then it went to chaos after that,” McCormick said. “We said last night that there had to be some big ones mixed in because every time we caught one I would scan the forward-facing sonar over there and see 10 with it. It was just a matter of putting the bait in front of the bigger ones.”

During their flurry, Mill estimates they caught between 15 to 20 fish.

“Just about every time we dropped down we were getting a bite,” he said. “I think those fish were posted up there, hugging the bottom. If both of our baits got around them, it didn’t matter if they were 2 inches away or 20, they were getting it.”

While the current interfered with the effectiveness of their forward-facing sonar initially, it played a big factor when they did hook a bass.

“The biggest thing is when he hooked one, I would scan the sonar over to see if there were any following it,” McCormick said. “Ninety-nine percent of the time, you can flick another bait over there and catch one of the followers, and we did that a bunch.”

Hailing from Kentucky Lake, Mills said that while his home lake has current, the St. Lawrence River is a whole different experience.

“You have current at Kentucky Lake, but this is all natural and it is always flowing,” Mills said. “That’s why these fish are as strong as they are. We don’t ever get to fish anywhere like this where you get to see 20 feet down. I like it a lot.”

After suffering through a slow morning, Compton and Bond finished Day 1 with 23-12 and anchored their bag with a 5-0 smallmouth.

“We stopped on some places we thought we would get some bites and some big bites,” Compton said. “We kept moving around to our different areas and we finally landed on a good group of fish around 11 (o’clock).”

Knowing the smallmouth had finished spawning, Bond said he and Compton focused on current seams. They found several different areas in practice and after hooking up with one or two bass in a spot, they would move to different water.

“Every day we had a consistent 16 or so pounds,” Bond said. “We weren’t trying to use up every one of our spots. We went to those spots and just hoped one of them had the fish there, and we hope they are there tomorrow as well.”

While they had never fished the St. Lawrence River before, Compton said they had been able to fish a couple of different smallmouth events that helped them prepare for this event.

“Hopefully we can keep the ball rolling tomorrow,” Compton said. “But nothing is guaranteed.”

With 22-14, the Adrian College duo of Hayden Scott and Griffin Fernandes landed in third place. After failing to catch a fish over 4 pounds in practice, they landed a 6-0 smallmouth to anchor their Day 1 bag.

“We had a shoal we were fishing that we got bit on in practice and never really got a big bite. He hooked a 4 1/2-pounder. We had just netted it and I picked up my rod to make sure it didn’t get sucked into the trolling motor on Spot-Lock.

“It was loaded up so I assumed it was stuck in the prop, and I started catching up to it and realized it started going to the other side of the boat. It came up and laid on its side.”

With a goal of 18 pounds for the day, Scott and Fernandes caught a couple of smaller keepers before figuring out how to entice the bigger bites.

“We knew we were around fish and so we stuck with it,” Scott said. “The first three spots we caught a couple of keepers and then all of a sudden it clicked. Later in the day, we still had a couple of little ones and then boom, back-to-back 4-pounders and we are right in it.”

The duo is rotating between several different deeper shoals, with current and wind direction making a big difference.

“We know there are fish on all of them, they just have these feeding windows and we hope to pull up on the right one when that school is eating,” Fernandes said.

Tripp Bowman and Blakely Young from Louisiana State University-Shreveport had the Carhartt Big Bass of the Day with a 6-10.

The full field will compete again Friday, taking off at 6:30 a.m. ET from Whittaker Park and returning for weigh-in at 2:30 p.m. The Top 12 at the conclusion of Day 2 will advance to Championship Saturday.

The Top 3 after the final day will punch their tickets to the College Classic Bracket, where the top finisher will earn a berth into the 2022 Academy Sports + Outdoors Bassmaster Classic presented by Huk.

PBs and Perseverance for College Team of the Year

Logan Parks and Tucker Smith of Auburn University were celebrated last night at the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship banquet for winning the 2021 Bassmaster College Team of the Year. Parks, a senior double majoring in Supply Chain Management and Information System Management and Smith, a freshman studying Business Marketing had a truly incredible year on the water.

Through four regular season events the duo never finished worse than 16th place, and that includes winning the Saginaw Bay regional in June. They won the Team of the Year points title by an impressive 91 points and were awarded $5,000 from Bassmaster and college series title sponsor Carhartt for their efforts along with a pile of Carhartt apparel and some top-of-the-line equipment from Minn Kota and Humminbird.

But the Auburn Tigers aren’t idling in cruise control here on the St. Lawrence River; they have their sights set on another strong finish and the National Championship trophies.

“It’s been an incredible year but it isn’t quite over,” Parks said with a smile. “We’re going to keep our heads down and work hard over the next few days and see what we can make happen.”

New to the Team of the Year format for 2021 is an automatic berth to the Bassmaster College Series Classic bracket for the winning team. Knowing they already have a one-in-eight shot at representing college fishing in the 2022 Bassmaster Classic would make it easy for Parks and Smith to lay up in this tournament, but that’s not their style.

Smith and Parks came up to New York a couple days before official practice to get in tune with the smallies and within their first ten minutes on Lake Ontario, Parks caught the biggest smallmouth of his life. A 6-pound 8-ounce beast caught on a dropshot that would make any avid anglers’ casting arm twitch.

Their practice on the St. Lawrence River didn’t have quite the same fireworks, but they’re still cautiously optimistic.

“Practice was pretty slow at first, but we changed areas after day one and started to catch some fish,” Smith explained. “We spent the third and final day of practice trying to dial into that area. It’s going to be a long run for us, like 60-miles each way, but it’s the best chance we’ve got so hopefully they’ll still be biting for us today.”

The Auburn Tigers anglers dream season was extremely close to never getting off the starting block, when a misunderstanding with COVID protocols caused the Auburn Bass Fishing Team to be suspended from competition until January 1, 2022.

“In March we competed in the first Carhartt Bassmaster College Series tournament of the year on Lake Hartwell as an “unaffiliated” team but because our boats are wrapped in our school colors we were technically violated our COVID rules,” Parks said. “Thankfully we were able to work with the school and get the suspension reduced in time to fish in the rest of the Bassmaster College Series schedule.”

When word got out about Auburn’s suspension earlier this year, the bass fishing community came together through social media posts and voiced the outcry for Auburn University to take another look at the situation. Thankfully Auburn officials did just that, and the suspension was shortened to just six weeks instead of several months.

“It certainly felt like everything was meant to be this year,” Smith said. “Without things happening exactly the way they did, we wouldn’t have had the chance to win Team of the Year. Through faith, trusting the process, perseverance, and the support of those around us we were able to have an amazing season.”

Talented young videographer Brandon Fien of Latendresse Media followed the Tigers throughout their season and put together several high quality videos that do a great job of showcasing college fishing.

Wheeler Wins Again! Tennessee Angler Wins Third Event of Season at MLF Bass Pro Tour Toyota Stage Six at Lake Champlain

PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. (Aug. 10, 2021) – It’s getting hard to contextualize just how good Academy Sports + Outdoors pro Jacob Wheeler of Harrison, Tennessee, has been this season. Wheeler caught 27 scorable smallmouth bass Tuesday weighing 88 pounds, 2 ounces to win the Major League Fishing (MLF) Bass Pro Tour Toyota Stage Six at Lake Champlain Presented by Googan Baits in Plattsburgh, New York, and earn another top payout of $100,000.

Wheeler’s margin-of-victory in the event was 30 pounds, 13 ounces – the largest margin in Bass Pro Tour history. Also winning late June’s Bass Pro Tour stop at the St. Lawrence River, Wheeler now becomes the first angler to ever win back-to-back Stages on the Bass Pro Tour, and the first angler to ever win three in one season. His fifth career victory this week at Lake Champlain broke his own record for the most Bass Pro Tour victories all-time, and he has finished first or second in four of the last five Bass Pro Tour events.

And he’s only 31 years old.

“It’s crazy to think – three wins this year. Absolutely crazy,” Wheeler said. “It’s been an unbelievable year. I just try to have that mindset – don’t ever give up, don’t ever give in. Just constantly working and preparing for the next one. There is so much hard work that goes into these events. And it still takes a lot of things to go right to come out on top against this group of guys.

“It takes so much time out here on the water,” Wheeler continued. “I just love this sport. I love competing. I love preparing for events. I love competing against this group of guys. These guys right here that I’m fishing against are the best in the world, hands down. The absolute toughest group of guys to beat. You have to bring your “A” game, day in and day out. Fishing against the best pushes me to become better. I’ve been truly blessed coming up here this season – New York has been pretty dang good to us.”

Wheeler mainly targeted smallmouth throughout the week, using just two baits.

“It was just typical smallmouth stuff,” he said. “Most of them came on a drop-shot rig, and some on a Ned rig. It came down to several different Ned style baits. I threw a (Googan Baits) Rattlin’ Ned and caught 3 or 4 key fish on it today. I also caught them this week on some fluke-style baits. It seemed like profile and color really mattered. Sometimes I had to go translucent. Sometimes I had to go lighter line. Sometimes I could get away with heavier line. It was really just trial and error each day.

“It’s really just been a progression of figuring it out this week, slowly but surely. It wasn’t fast and furious, but little clues gave me hints to certain things and I kind of dialed it in as the week went on. You have to keep an open mind and that’s been the biggest thing for me this year – fishing stuff that I think looks good, develop the pattern and figure it out throughout the week and it gets better and better.”

Despite Wheeler’s already incredible season, he still has one goal left for the year – the Bass Pro Tour Angler of the Year (AOY) title. Pro Ott DeFoe of Blaine, Tennessee, who finished the event in 3rd place, has had an incredible season in his own right, and with one event remaining in the season he currently owns a 12-point lead over second-place Wheeler in the AOY race.

“I love Ott to death. He is unreal everywhere we go,” Wheeler went on to say. “It’s going to be battle. If either of us slip up one time, one day, it’s over. Whoever wins is going to have to make a top-10 at Stage Seven in Detroit, and we’ve got our work cut out for us. Realistically, I could have a phenomenal finish and still get beat. I’m just going to worry about winning another tournament and if it works out, it works out. I don’t have any AOY pressure – I’m going to prepare for that tournament to win it.”

Florence, Italy’s Jacopo Gallelli, who qualified to compete in this tournament after winning the Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit event at the Potomac River in June, caught 21 bass totaling 57 pounds, 5 ounces to finish second and win $45,257.

“I tell you, with this situation I had this morning, this second place (finish) is like a win,” Gallelli said. “I lost 2 hours of fishing – 1½ hours because of mechanical issues and another half hour when we went idling back into the creek. So, I cannot be more happy about being second. Especially considering this field. This field is made of the 80 most skilled anglers in the world, and I proved it to myself and everybody that I can compete at this level.

“If somebody was thinking the Potomac River was just a fluke, I demonstrated to everybody that it was not, most of all to myself,” Gallelli went on to say. “I did my best, and dealt with a very bad situation, so I am very proud of myself and very happy.”

The top 10 at the Bass Pro Tour Toyota Stage Six at Lake Champlain finished:

1st: Jacob Wheeler, Harrison, Tenn., 27 bass, 88-2, $100,257
2nd: Jacopo Gallelli, Florence, Italy, 21 bass, 57-5, $45,257
3rd: Ott DeFoe, Blaine, Tenn., 18 bass, 50-6, $38,257
4th: Timmy Horton, Muscle Shoals, Ala., 16 bass, 43-9, $32,257
5th: Bryan Thrift, Shelby, N.C., 11 bass, 31-15, $30,257
9th: Matt Lee, Cullman, Ala., 11 bass, 30-15, $26,257
6th: Justin Lucas, Guntersville, Ala., 10 bass, 29-7, $23,257
7th: Kelly Jordon, Flint, Texas, 11 bass, 29-6, $21,257
8th: Wesley Strader, Spring City, Ala., 10 bass, 27-15, $19,257
10th: Brent Ehrler, Redlands, Calif., eight bass, 25-14, $16,257

A complete list of results can be found at MajorLeagueFishing.com.

Overall, there were 143 bass weighing 411 pounds, 2 ounces caught by the final 10 pros on Tuesday.

Wheeler also won Tuesday’s $1,000 Berkley Big Bass Award, weighing a 4-pound, 15-ounce smallmouth on a drop-shot rig in Period 2 to earn the prize. Shaw Grigsby and Takahiro Omori split the $3,000 Berkley Big Bass award for the largest bass of the event as each weighed in a 5-pound, 14-ounce largemouth on Days 2 and 3 of competition.

The Toyota Stage Six at Lake Champlain Presented by Googan Baits featured anglers competing with a 2-pound minimum weight requirement for a bass to be deemed scorable. Minimum weights are determined individually for each competition waters that the Bass Pro Tour visits, based on the productivity, bass population and anticipated average size of fish in each fishery.

The MLF Bass Pro Tour Toyota Stage Six at Lake Champlain Presented by Googan Baits was hosted by the Adirondack Coast Visitors Bureau and the City of Plattsburgh. The six-day tournament featured the top professional anglers from around the world competing for a top cash prize of $100,000 to the winner.

Arey Flings Arrows, Frogs and Underspins in August

Matt Arey feels unprepared if he doesn’t shoot at least 100 arrows with his compound bow every August to get ready for North Carolina’s opening day of archery season in early September.

Likewise, if he doesn’t have at least two prominent strategies in his quiver for the often-challenging days on the water in August, he fills at risk for missing the target on late summer’s quirky largemouth and spotted bass.

“I actually just bought a new bow for the first time in six years. It’s a Hoyt RX-5. And with a brand-new bow, I don’t even begin to truly sight it in until I’ve shot at least 200 arrows through it to stretch the strings. So yes, I’m shooting a ton right now,” says Arey.

But when he’s not shooting arrows or fulfilling daddy duties to his beloved young daughters, the North Carolina State grad spends August chasing shallow shade lines or submerged brushpiles.

“Unlike the spawn, post spawn, or late fall when bass get in predictable places and do predictable things, August is kind of a weird time in the bass fishing universe. So, I focus on both a shallow pattern and a deeper pattern,” says the Team Toyota pro.

Arey’s shallow August pattern

“I like to start the day in August up shallow with a Lunkerhunt Compact Frog around the shady undercut banks, overhanging limbs, or the shade lines around fairly shallow boat docks where sunfish hangout and become food for bass,” he says.

Arey says he’s yet to actually see a bass eat a frog. Although, he did see one crush a baby duckling one time, and we all know frogs, ducklings and bluegills are part of a largemouth’s shallow water summer smorgasbord.

“A topwater frog tied to 50-pound P-Line braid is a just a great tool for skipping and casting around the shallow shady places where largemouth like to find food at this time of year. And it seems to get bites from the biggest bass — that’s the part I like most,” grins Arey.

“Oh, and by the way, that momma duck went bananas the second she knew that largemouth ate her baby. I’ll never forget watching that whole scene. It was nuts!” he remembers.

The deeper approach

With water temps as high as they’ll get all year, logically, it’s natural to think ‘deep’ in August. But deep is a relative term, and often times the thermocline that is well established right now can be as shallow as 15 or 18 feet. So often times there’s no need to look in the oxygen deprived depths beyond that range.

“I like brushpiles that top-out at 10 to 15 feet in August,” says Arey. “The natural approach is to sling a big Texas rigged worm around, but when you do that you’re really hunting those solitary big fish that may or may not bite. That’s kind of a high-risk/high-reward approach,” says Arey.

“So for a more consistent bite in August, I like to throw a 3/8-ounce Pulse Fish Spinnin’ PJ with a 3” trailer on it to catch the way more plentiful number of bass that are suspended around brush, but not necessarily buried in the heart of it, and they’re generally looking to ambush shad,” he adds.

The Pulse Fish Spinnin’ PJ features a fast-penetrating 3/0 lightwire hook, a high quality Spro barrel swivel, and perhaps most important, a carefully designed spacer wire that assures the blade spins constantly. He ties it to 10 or 12-pound P-Line fluorocarbon on a baitcaster, and pairs it with a fairly soft tipped Lew’s 7’ casting rod.

In order to keep it from snagging in the brush, Arey uses the ‘countdown’ method to reach the depth he knows to be just above the brush without getting tangled in it.

“Lowrance’s ActiveTarget™ makes seeing both brush and fish way easier, but I caught a ton of bass suspended over brush way before forward-looking sonar came around,” he remembers.

“As long as you know where the brush is, you’re in the game with this pattern. If you don’t have ActiveTarget, pick-out a tree, dock, or light pole on the shoreline to line up your cast. Then cast beyond the brush, count down your Spinnin’ PJ, and retrieve it with a series of stop, starts, and slightly erratic behavior over top the brush,” explains Arey.

There’s certainly nothing erratic about Arey’s on the water performance. He’s cashed a check in an astonishing 29 of the 32 B.A.S.S. events he’s fished – that’s a mind-bending 90% success rate.

And if he keeps flinging dozens of arrows though his new Hoyt bow, they’ll be no chance for inconsistency in his archery game when the whitetail season begins either.
