Florida’s Frederick Wins FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee

by | Jan 28, 2018 | , | 0 Comments

CLEWISTON, Fla. (Jan. 28, 2018) – When Leesburg, Florida, angler Tim Frederick turned pro and began competing on the Fishing League Worldwide (FLW) Tour, the first event of his career was at Lake Okeechobee in February of 2016. Frederick managed to catch just one bass in two days of competition at that tournament and finished in 169th – last place. On Sunday, Frederick redeemed himself by catching a five-bass limit weighing 19 pounds, 14 ounces, to earn the win the FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude.

Frederick’s four-day total of 20 bass weighing 85-4 gave him the win by a narrow 1-pound, 2-ounce margin over second-place pro Bryan Schmitt of Deale, Maryland, and earned him $100,000 in a dramatic finale to the four-day event that featured 188 of the best bass anglers in the world kicking off the 2018 FLW Tour season.

“I’m still a little shocked,” said Frederick, whose previous best finish in FLW Tour competition was a 14th place finish on the Harris Chain of Lakes in 2017. “I didn’t think that I had as much weight that I did today. Some of the best fisherman on the planet were fishing in this event and to come out on top after four days – this is a dream come true.”

Frederick caught his bass throughout the week by targeting isolated reed clumps in Harney Pond.

“I was so stressed today,” Frederick said. “I had a small limit and I had missed a good one earlier and I did not know whether to leave or to stay. I had to sit down for a minute and regain my composure and I decided to stick it out in that area. I had nothing else to go to, and that place had been special to me. With just 10 minutes left in the day, I caught a big one. It was a $100,000 fish.”

Frederick’s “big one” was an estimated 8-pounder that was most certainly the winning fish. Frederick said that all of his fish this week came on a pair of stickbaits – a Strike King Ocho (black with blue flake or black with blue tail) and a Strike King Shim-E-Stick (black with blue flake or black with blue tail) – and a Strike King Pure Poison Swim Jig (green-pumpkin) with a Rage Bug trailer.

“I think the keys for me this week were my Power-Poles, my Florida knowledge, and patience,” Frederick went on to say. “It would have been near impossible for me to fish some of the areas that I did this week if I wouldn’t have been able to pole down. And when I would first pull up to a spot I would target the key areas. Sometimes it took multiple casts and fishing extremely slow, but every fish that I caught were in those key areas.”

The top 10 pros on Lake Okeechobee finished:

1st:          Tim Frederick, Leesburg, Fla., 20 bass, 85-4, $100,000
2nd:         Bryan Schmitt, Deale, Md., 20 bass, 84-2, $30,000
3rd:         General Tire pro Mark Rose, West Memphis, Ark., 20 bass, 78-5, $25,500
4th:         Jared McMillan, Belle Glade, Fla., 20 bass, 73-13, $20,100
5th:         Brandon McMillan, Clewiston, Fla., 20 bass, 69-12, $19,000
6th:         Christopher Brasher, Longview, Texas, 20 bass, 67-4, $18,000
7th:         Chad Morgenthaler, Reeds Spring, Mo., 20 bass, 67-1, $17,000
8th:         Quaker State pro Scott Canterbury, Odenville, Ala., 20 bass, 65-15, $16,000
9th:         Power-Pole pro Cory Johnston, Cavan, Ontario, Canada, 20 bass, 60-5, $15,500
10th:       Chris Johnston, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, 20 bass, 59-5, $14,000

Jeffrey Mathews of Maitland, Florida, won the co-angler division and $20,000 Friday with a two-day total of 10 bass weighing 42 pounds, 1 ounce, followed by Tyler Woolcott of Port Orange, Florida, who finished in second place with 10 bass weighing 37 pounds, 15 ounces, worth $7,600.

The total purse for the FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude was more than $930,000, including $10,000 through 60th place in the Pro division. The tournament was hosted by Roland & Mary Ann Martin’s Marina and Resort and the Hendry County Tourism Development Council.

Florida’s Frederick Grabs Lead on Day Three of FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee

by | Jan 27, 2018 | , | 0 Comments

CLEWISTON, Fla. (Jan. 27, 2018) – Pro Tim Frederick of Leesburg, Florida, caught two kicker largemouth Saturday – a 6- and 7-pounder – to anchor his 23-pound, 3-ounce limit and jump to the top of the leaderboard after Day Three of the FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude. Frederick’s five-bass limit was the only bag Saturday that weighed in excess of 20 pounds, telling when you consider that the lake had pumped out 16, 20+ pound limits in the first two days of competition.

Frederick (15 bass, 65-6) will now bring a 15-ounce lead over second-place pro Bryan Schmitt of Deale, Maryland, (15 bass, 64-7) who led the first two days of competition, into Championship Sunday. Also in striking distance, in third place, is General Tire pro Mark Rose of West Memphis, Arkansas, (15 bass, 61-3). Rose has a history of fast starts to the season, winning the first two events of the 2017 FLW Tour season at Lake Guntersville and Lake Travis.

“My very first FLW Tour event three years ago was on this lake, and I weighed in one bass and finished dead last,” said Frederick, who is fishing in his 14th career FLW Tour event. “I’ve got a love-hate relationship with this lake, and right now I am loving it. I didn’t get a lot of bites today, but the ones that I did get were good ones.

“Although my day turned out really well, it didn’t start that way,” Frederick continued. “It was terribly slow. I caught one of my good ones early – my second fish – but then it took me forever to get a limit. When the water temperature hit 64 degrees I had a 45- to 50-minute window where I caught two more good ones, but I didn’t catch more than 9 or 10 fish all day.”

Frederick said that his key bait that landed all of his keepers on Saturday was a Texas-rigged black and blue-colored Strike King Ocho worm. He’s also mixed in a Strike King Pure Poison Swim Jig and an unnamed swimjig to produce at times during the week.

“I’m usually a power-fisherman, and it’s weird because I’m fishing so slowly this week,” Frederick said. “I’m throwing at isolated clumps of pencil reeds and it might take me 5 minutes to reel back in. But, if it doesn’t feel right, I’ll just reel in immediately and make another pitch. I’m fishing by feel, basically. I can actually feel the beds with my bait, and when I do I’ll keep making multiple casts to the same area.

“The bite was tougher today, and I think it was due to how cloudy it was. Tomorrow, they’re saying that it’s going to be worse – rainy and windy.  But, my water is still clean and I’ve got no choice but to be patient and stick it out there. Win, lose or draw, there is enough fish in my area to win it. I just have to get them to bite.”

The top 10 pros advancing to the final day of competition on Lake Okeechobee are:

1st:          Tim Frederick, Leesburg, Fla., 15 bass, 65-6
2nd:         Bryan Schmitt, Deale, Md., 15 bass, 64-7
3rd:         General Tire pro Mark Rose, West Memphis, Ark., 15 bass, 61-3
4th:         Power-Pole pro Cory Johnston, Cavan, Ontario, Canada, 15 bass, 53-11
5th:         Chad Morgenthaler, Reeds Spring, Mo., 10 bass, 53-0
6th:         Brandon McMillan, Clewiston, Fla., 15 bass, 52-11
7th:         Jared McMillan, Belle Glade, Fla., 15 bass, 51-14
8th:         Quaker State pro Scott Canterbury, Odenville, Ala., 15 bass, 51-12
9th:         Chris Johnston, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, 15 bass, 50-8

Fog Cancels Final Day Of Bassmaster College Series Event; Wisconsin-Platteville Claims Win

by | Jan 27, 2018 | , | 0 Comments

After a final day fog cancellation, Conner Choate (right) and Hunter DeSplinter of the University of Wisconsin-Platteville won the 2018 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series Central Tour presented by Bass Pro Shops on Toledo Bend Reservoir out of Many, La., with a two-day total weight of 41 pounds, 6 ounces.

MANY, La. — The week has been full of twists and turns for Hunter DeSplinter and Conner Choate of the University of Wisconsin-Platteville at the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series Central Tour presented by Bass Pro Shops on Toledo Bend.

After catching 25 pounds, 9 ounces on Friday, they took the lead as the Top 30 teams prepared for the final day of competition. Little did they know they wouldn’t need another cast on Toledo Bend to take the Central Tour title.

Saturday’s action was canceled after heavy fog hung over Toledo Bend, and Choate and DeSplinter were named champions with a two-day total of 41-6. Conditions weren’t conducive to send teams onto the 185,000-acre reservoir — and as the minutes ticked by, the fog seemed to settle into the Sabine River impoundment more and more.

“If half of the day or more is threatened by a delay, then the day is canceled,” Tournament Director Hank Weldon said. “We scheduled Saturday’s final day to be an eight-hour event, but with fog making visibility non-existent on Toledo Bend we canceled Saturday’s action for good reason.”

When the clock struck 11 a.m. CT, the 30 teams had mixed emotions as some were fine with not going and others were frustrated they didn’t have one more opportunity to compete for the win. Meanwhile, the winning team of Choate and DeSplinter were seemingly numb and stunned by what had happened.

The sophomore tandem was more than intimidated by the vastness of Toledo Bend when it was announced on the schedule, but they started the week with a plan to try to simply make the 2018 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship. Not only did they survive and qualify, but they withstood the field after two days and were alone at the top of the leaderboard.

“This is our second event together as a team,” DeSplinter said. “It is unexplainable at the moment. We watch these events on TV and we dream of it, everyone does. But for everything to come together and to win; we may never experience this again.”

The duo fished on the south end of Toledo Bend and caught every fish, including their 10-pound kicker on Day 2 on a Strike King 5XD crankbait. Their main area was a swift drop in bottom contour off a grass flat. Their double-digit bass also took Big Bass honors for the week.

“Anglers were fishing too shallow and basically were on top of the fish, but they were focused on the grass,” Choate said. “Hunter found a perfect lineup, and we were able to run our crankbaits off the drop and it was incredible.”

This marks the University of Wisconsin-Platteville’s first Bassmaster College Series victory as a school and one that seemed inconceivable a few weeks ago for the team as they bested the 248-team field. Their miracle Day 2 weight carried them past the Day 1 leaders of Tyler Craig and Spencer Lambert of Louisiana-Monroe who weighed back-to-back 20-pound bags and found themselves just 5 ounces off the pace with 41-1.

“To finish in second place is great because our main goal was to make the national championship,” Craig said. “It was the right decision to cancel, but it does sting some because we wanted a shot to win today. It just wasn’t meant to be.”

Craig and Lambert claimed second at the 2017 Central Regional just down the road at Sam Rayburn Reservoir. Pair that with a great track record and a Top 12 at the 2017 national championship and this duo will be one to watch this summer once again.

Third place went to Caiden Sinclair and Hunter Gibson of the University of Alabama who jumped to the podium after catching 22-11 on Friday. They were roughly 3 pounds off the pace and were definitely in contention on Toledo Bend going into Saturday.

The Top 30 teams slated to compete on Saturday didn’t leave unrewarded as they clinched berths into the College Series National Championship, which will be announced at a later date. With the completion of the Central Tour on Toledo Bend, there are now three more Tour events for anglers to fish as well as their state qualifiers. The next Tour event is slated for Pickwick Lake in Florence, Ala., on April 19-21.

The event was hosted by Toledo Bend Lake Country.

CLEWISTON, Fla. (Jan. 26, 2018) – Day One leader Bryan Schmitt of Deale, Maryland, brought a five-bass limit to the scale Friday weighing 23 pounds, 8 ounces, to slightly extend his lead after Day Two of the FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude. He’ll bring a slim 14-ounce lead over General Tire pro Mark Rose of West Memphis, Arkansas, into Day Three of the four-day event that featured a field of 376 of the world’s best bass-fishing professionals casting for top awards of up to $125,000.

Local pro Brandon McMillan of Clewiston leads the local contingent with 36-13, good for eighth place, while Clewiston’s Scott Martin sits in 12th place with 33-13. Brandon’s little brother, Jared McMillan of Belle Glade, also made the top-30 cut and will start Day Three in 15th place with 33-8. The field is now cut to 30 for Saturday’s competition with only the top 10 anglers advancing to championship Sunday.

“I went back to my same spot where I caught them yesterday and kind of expanded on my area today,” said Schmitt, a two-time Forrest Wood Cup qualifier. “There was a little more boat traffic in there today, and it took me a while to get into a new comfort zone. I caught probably 12 fish today – five good ones – but most of my weight came between 12 and 3.”

Schmitt is sharing the area with many of the tournament leaders, including the Johnston brothers from Canada. He said that all of his fish that he weighed in came on a different bait than yesterday.

“I had to change to a different bait today – a Riot Baits Recon (vibrating jig),” Schmitt continued. “At this point there aren’t many secrets and we all know what each other are doing. It’s going to come down to whoever gets lucky over the next two days. The winning fish are there. The potential for a 30-pound limit is sitting right there.

“There are definitely some fish spawning. And there are still some coming in. I think it’s the perfect storm.”

The top 30 pros that made the cut and will fish Saturday on Lake Okeechobee are:

1st:          Bryan Schmitt, Deale, Md., 10 bass, 48-3

In FLW Tour competition, pros and co-anglers are randomly paired each day, with pros supplying the boat, controlling boat movement and competing against other pros. Co-anglers fish from the back deck against other co-anglers. The full field of 376 anglers competed in the two-day opening round. Co-angler competition concluded following Friday’s weigh-in, while the top 30 pros based on their two-day accumulated weight advance to Saturday. Only the top 10 pros continue competition Sunday, with the winner determined by the heaviest accumulated weight from the four days of competition.

The total purse for the FLW Tour at Lake Okeechobee presented by Evinrude is more than $930,000, including $10,000 through 60th place in the Pro division. The tournament is hosted by Roland & Mary Ann Martin’s Marina and Resort and the Hendry County Tourism Development Council.

Throughout the season, anglers are also vying for valuable points in hopes of qualifying for the 2018 Forrest Wood Cup, the world championship of professional bass fishing. The 2018 Forrest Wood Cup will be on Lake Ouachita in Hot Springs, Arkansas, Aug. 10-12 and is hosted by the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism and Visit Hot Springs.

Anglers will take off at 7:30 a.m. EST each day from Roland & Mary Ann Martin’s Marina and Resort, located at 920 E. Del Monte, Ave., in Clewiston. Friday’s weigh-ins, Jan. 26, will be held at the resort beginning at 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday’s weigh-ins, Jan. 27-28, will also be held at the resort, but will begin at 4 p.m.

Prior to the weigh-ins Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 27-28, FLW will host a free Family Fishing Expo at Roland & Mary Ann Martin’s Marina and Resort from noon to 4 p.m. each day. The Expo is a chance for fishing fans to meet their favorite anglers, enjoy interactive games, activities and giveaways provided by FLW sponsors, and learn more about the sport of fishing and other outdoor activities.

Also for youth, the FLW Foundation’s Unified Fishing Derby will be held at the marina on Saturday, Jan. 27 from 9-11 a.m. The event is hosted by FLW Foundation pro Cody Kelley along with other FLW Tour anglers, and is free and open to anyone under the age of 18 and Special Olympics athletes. Rods and reels are available for use, but youth are encouraged to bring their own if they own one. The 1st and 2nd place anglers that catch the biggest fish will be recognized Saturday on the FLW Tour stage, just prior to the pros weighing in.

Double-Digit Bass Lifts Wisconsin-Platteville To Top Spot In Bassmaster College Series Central Tour

by | Jan 26, 2018 | , | 0 Comments

Conner Choate (right) and Hunter DeSplinter of the University of Wisconsin-Platteville take the lead on the second day of the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series Central Tour presented by Bass Pro Shops on Toledo Bend Reservoir out of Many, La., with a two-day total weight of 41 pounds, 6 ounces.

MANY, La. — Toledo Bend showed its true colors on Friday during the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series Central Tour presented by Bass Pro Shops. After only offering a single 20-pound bag on the first day of competition, nine teams met that mark or more on Friday.
 
Conner Choate and Hunter DeSplinter of the University of Wisconsin-Platteville stole the show as they brought 25 pounds, 9 ounces, to the stage on Friday and jumped into the lead with a two-day total of 41-6. Their day was anchored by a monster catch as their kicker tipped the scales at 10 pounds.
 
It not only was DeSplinter’s personal best, but it was also recognized as an elite catch by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
 
“We showed up to our first spot just looking to get a limit in the 11- to 12-pound range,” DeSplinter said. “We had that before 8:30 a.m., so we just kept fishing around and working hard.”
 
After catching 15-13 on Day 1, just a solid limit would have helped their chances greatly. But what happened after their initial limit is now an unforgettable memory for this duo.
 
“At 10 a.m., I hooked into the 10-pounder,” DeSplinter said. “I had never seen a fish so big. It jumped at the boat;  I for sure thought I was going to lose it, but we didn’t.”
 
The fireworks were just beginning as they gathered themselves and continued fishing. They hit a few nearby spots and caught keepers that wouldn’t help their overall weight, so they returned to the spot that produced earlier.
 
“We returned to that spot and immediately caught a fish close to 7 pounds,” DeSplinter said. “We packed up and headed back to the ramp to ensure the giant fish survived.”
 
The duo is now preparing to fend off 29 other teams during Saturday’s final day of competition. Coming into the event, their mindset was solely focused on qualifying for the National Championship. But now they have a chance to take home the title of the inaugural Central Tour format.
 
“We had no expectations leaving the dock (Friday),” Choate said. “So, we need to keep that same mindset because everything can change so quickly.”
 
Behind Wisconsin-Platteville are Thursday’s leaders Tyler Craig and Spencer Lambert of the University of Louisiana at Monroe. The duo slipped to second place, but eclipsed the 20-pound mark for the second consecutive day, the only team to accomplish that in the 248-boat field.
 
“It’s extremely important to stay consistent on Toledo Bend,” said Craig, whose team has a two-day weight of 41-1. “You can catch up in a hurry with a big bag, but at the same time you can stumble and fall if you rely on a giant bite each day.”
 
Craig and Lambert have landed five and six keepers, respectively, the last two days, and both days have featured crucial catches just before check-in. But they know they are targeting quality and may not need quantity to win.
 
“It’s not easy fishing for a handful of bites, but I feel like the bigger fish are trickling into our area,” Craig said. “It seems like our spots are the transition areas and the fish are pulling up and feeding, and then when they leave they are headed to even shallower water to spawn.”
 
It could be a battle until the last cast as first and second are separated by only 5 ounces heading into the final frame of action.
 
Caiden Sinclair and Hunter Gibson of the University of Alabama vaulted into third place after bringing the second-biggest bag of the day to the scales. Their 22-11 limit has them just over 3 pounds from the lead and within sight of a possible title with 38-3.
 
The final team to sneak into the cut was Bethel University’s John Garrett and Brian Pahl. The duo has finished second and fourth in the last two national championships, and Garrett was the 2016 College Classic Bracket champion who represented the College Series during the 2017 season.
 
The 248-team field was cut after Friday’s weigh-in to the Top 30. Those teams clinched a berth in the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship presented by Bass Pro Shops and will be fishing for the win on Saturday.
 
The final-day takeoff will begin at 7 a.m. CT from Cypress Bend Park, and the weigh-in will be held back at the park at 3 p.m.
 
The event is being hosted by Toledo Bend Lake Country.
