Kansas’ Pilcher Wins Two-Day Phoenix Bass Fishing League event on Grand Lake

Kansas’ Pilcher Wins Two-Day Phoenix Bass Fishing League event on Grand Lake

Co-angler Victory Goes to Miami’s Yang

[print_link]

GROVE, Okla. (Oct. 5, 2020) Boater John Pilcher of Kansas, Oklahoma, brought a two-day total of 10 bass to the scale weighing 32 pounds, 1 ounce to win the Phoenix Bass Fishing League presented by T-H Marine

Okie Division Super-Tournament at Grand Lake. For his victory, Pilcher earned $7,922.

This was the fifth and final qualifying event in the 2020 Okie Division and was hosted by the City of Grove.

“The main thing was just sticking with it,” said Pilcher. “We didn’t catch much until about noon on Sunday, when the sun came out. It was pretty slow starting, so we ran 40 to 50 different spots and I lost a couple fish at the end, but we finished well.”

Pilcher said he mainly fished off-shore brush flats and ledges to secure his first Phoenix Bass Fishing League win.

“I fished from mid-lake down to the dam, in about 12- to 20-feet-deep,” Pilcher continued. “I caught most of my fish on a ¾-ounce Bass X Jig, a River2Sea Whopper Plopper and a buzzbait.”

The top 10 boaters finished the tournament as follows:

1st:       John Pilcher of Kansas, Okla., 10 bass, 32-1, $7,922

2nd:      Ed Barton of Vian, Okla., 10 bass, 31-15, $3,461

3rd:       Crawford Brantley of Grove, Okla., 10 bass, 31-14, $3,826

4th:       Toby Hartsell of Afton, Okla., 10 bass, 30-1, $1,615

5th:       Brian Dossey of Okmulgee, Okla., 10 bass, 29-11, $1,384

6th:       Lance Williams of Billings, Mo., 10 bass, 27-3, $1,269

7th:       Andy Newcomb of Camdenton, Mo., 10 bass, 26-14, $1,154

8th:       Chris Torkleson of Sand Springs, Okla., 10 bass, 26-10, $1,038

9th:       Shawn Kowal of Linn Creek, Mo., 10 bass, 26-1, $923

10th:     Christopher Johnson of Farmington, Ark., 10 bass, 26-0, $808

The 2020 Phoenix Bass Fishing League presented by T-H Marine is a 24-division circuit devoted to weekend anglers, with 128 tournaments throughout the season, five qualifying events in each division. The top 45 boaters and co-anglers from each division, along with the five winners of the qualifying events, will advance to one of six regional tournaments where they are competing to finish in the top six, which then qualifies them for one of the longest-running championships in all of competitive bass fishing – the Phoenix Bass Fishing League All-American.

Dothan’s Powell Wins Two-Day Phoenix Bass Fishing League event on Lake Eufaula

Co-angler Victory Goes to Covington’s Santiago

[print_link]

EUFAULA, Ala. (Oct. 5, 2020) Boater Shane Powell of Dothan, Alabama brought a two-day total of 10 bass to the scale weighing 38 pounds, 15 ounces to win the Phoenix Bass Fishing League presented by T-H Marine Bulldog Division Super-Tournament at Lake

Eufaula. For his victory, Powell earned $5,831.

This was the fifth and final qualifying event in the 2020 Bulldog Division and was hosted by the Eufaula Barbour County Chamber of Commerce.

“Sunday, I started at a new location where I hadn’t fished during practice, or on day one, and caught several key bass which really set the tempo for the day,” said Powell. “I ran all the way up and down the lake, burning an entire tank of gas on day one. I got a little more focused on the second day and stayed toward the south end of the lake.”

Powell said he caught most of his fish shallow, four- to five-feet-deep, on a ChatterBait and an unnamed jig.

“The water was about four-feet low and had a lot of color, allowing me to throw a ChatterBait and other moving baits, which the fish were really keying in on.

“This is my second BFL win, but my first two-day tournament win,” Powell continued. “These wins are hard to come by and I’m definitely proud.”

The top 10 boaters finished the tournament as follows:

1st:       Shane Powelll of Dothan, Ala., 10 bass, 38-15, $5,831

2nd:      Scott Montgomery of Eufaula, Ala., 10 bass, 34-11, $3,415

3rd:       Matt Baty of Bainbridge, Ga., 10 bass, 34-3, $1,945

4th:       Josh Stracner of Vandiver, Ala., 10 bass, 32-0, $1,361

5th:       Jay Grogan of Fort Mitchell, Ala., 10 bass, 30-8, $1,166

6th:       Brad Stalnaker of Eatonton, Ga., 10 bass, 30-6, $1,069

7th:       Al Cleghorn of Fitzgerald, Ga., 10 bass, 28-12, $972

8th:       Dylan Peppers of Social Circle, Ga., nine bass, 27-7, $875

9th:       Michael M. Smith of Andalusia, Ala., 10 bass, 27-5, $777

10th:     Michael Conley of Bainbridge, Ga., 10 bass, 27-4, $680

Picture: Chris Wilson from Apex, NC holding a nice Smith Mtn. Lake crappie caught while fishing with his dad Captain Dale Wilson.

Late October is usually a good time to catch crappie.

[print_link]

Fishing has been good. The water temperature has fallen the past few weeks. Baitfish have started moving to shallow water. Top water fishing should be good this month. Water temperature will be in the 60s.

Largemouth bass

Fishing should be good. Best lures will be jigs, drop shot rigs, crank baits, swim baits, Ned rigs and top water lures. Most largemouth bass will be caught in shallow water on secondary points in small coves around stumps, rocks and docks. Best depths will be from the surface to 12 feet. Largemouth bass will continue to feed at night this month. Be sure to practice catch and release.

Smallmouth bass

Fishing should be good this month. The best areas will be rocks, sunken islands and long main channel points. The best lures will be Ned rigs, hair jigs, top water lures and shallow running crankbaits. The best areas will be in the mid- to lower sections of the lake. Cloudy days with light winds are the best time to fish. Light line will increase chances to catch smallmouth bass.

Striped bass

Fishing will improve this month. The best areas will be from the mid- to uppers sections of the lake and the larger creeks. The best lures will be swim baits, top water lures and Zoom flukes fished on 3/8- to 1/2-ounce lead heads. Fishing at night will be fair. Try to find areas with the largest concentration of baitfish. Some stripers will feed on the surface this month. Live bait fished on planer boards and down lines will also be a good method this month.

 
Crappie

Fishing for crappie will improve as the water temperature cools. The best depths will be 2 to 15 feet. The best areas will be in the main creeks around docks, fallen trees, stumps and brush piles in the mid- to upper parts of the lake. The best lures will be small live minnows and 1½- to 2-inch, shad-shaped plastic tubes fished on 1/32- to 1/16-ounce lead heads.
Tips of the month

Start looking for schools of feeding fish in the rear section of main creeks and shallow coves. The fish and the baitfish will relate to the shallow areas because of the warmer water temperature. Wear a life jacket and never fish alone at night. Make sure running lights are on after dark. Remember to practice catch and release, and take a kid fishing.

Redemption For Doren At Big Bass Zone Junior Championship

BBZJC winner - 2020.JPG

PRIEST RIVER, Idaho — Carter Doren, a 16-year-old angler from Las Vegas, Nev., doesn’t want to remember his performance at last year’s Big Bass Zone Junior Championship presented by Bassmaster (BBZJC) held on Idaho’s Lake Pend Oreille. Not only did he not catch a fish during that event, but he didn’t even get a bite.

How things can change in a year. Doren, the last competitor to walk onstage in the 52-angler field, brought a 4.35-pound largemouth to the scales to capture the championship title and take home the first-place prize, a BassCat Margay powered by a Mercury outboard.

“I am in shock,” the young angler gasped when he realized he won, almost falling to his knees on the weigh-in stand. “It was an amazing day. I caught a 3-pounder on my first cast. Things really slowed down, so we motored to the other side of the river and pulled up next to a dock. I skipped my jig under the dock, immediately got a bite and set the hook. The fish didn’t feel all that big while I was fighting it, so I went to boat flip it and realized that would be a bad idea. I freaked out, then lipped it and went crazy!”

The BBZJC format is a big fish tournament. Anglers were tasked with a simple challenge: catch the biggest fish they could find in an 8-hour day and hope it was bigger than every other fish that hit the scales. Doren’s largemouth accomplished just that.

Doren landed the winning fish the first 30 minutes of the day on a football jig with a Yamamoto Fat Baby Craw as a trailer. “I am so thankful I skipped under that dock, because we didn’t get a bite the last four hours of the day.”

The BBZJC event is a unique event in the world of bass fishing. Fifty-two anglers from 48 states qualified for the tournament through a months-long virtual tournament. The competitors would catch a fish, then submit the fish to a virtual leaderboard for each state. The angler with the heaviest bass became the qualifier from that state.

“This format allows every kid that can find a fishing rod the ability to compete against their peers across the country for almost $300,000 in prizes,” said BBZJC president Bill Siemantel. “They can qualify by fishing from the bank, from a kayak or from a bass boat in every sort of fishery you can imagine.

“This year, we had 13 anglers compete that also qualified last year. We had a kid from Florida drive to Maine to qualify in that state. It is simply unbelievable the passion these kids have for the format and the commitment parents and family members showed to get anglers involved.”

Doren qualified for the event on the strength of a 4-6 smallmouth he landed on Nevada’s Lake Mohave while bed fishing.

Brayden Stoker from Stephenville, Texas, landed a 3.86-pound largemouth for second place.

Gus Dietric, of Oxford, Mich., landed a 3.47-pound largemouth for third.

Prizes included trips to Lake El Salto and the Amazon provided by Anglers Inn International; electronics and trolling motors from Humminbird, Minn Kota, Lowrance and MotorGuide; scholarships from Bethel University; batteries from Lithium Pros; rods from St. Croix and Daiwa; and a host of gear from supporting manufacturers.
