Carson-Newman Leads Bassmaster College Series At Lake Hartwell
ANDERSON, S.C. — Thanks to a morning flurry, the Carson-Newman University duo of Aidan England and Braden Perry caught five bass that weighed 18 pounds, 11 ounces to lead Day 1 of the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series at Lake Hartwell presented by Bass Pro Shops.

England and Perry hold an 11-ounce lead over the second-place team of Nate Lesch and Will Schibig from Tennessee Tech. The Carson-Newman team of Ben Cully and Hayden Gaddis placed third with 17-13.
Throughout their college careers, England and Perry have learned where spotted bass like to group up during the early prespawn. They have ridden that information to successful finishes across multiple venues, including a second-place showing at Smith Lake in Alabama during the 2019 season.
“This is our junior year. We found over the last three years at every spotted bass lake we’ve been to, all these spots like to load up on one area this time of the year,” Perry said. “They are all feeding up and getting ready to go drop their eggs off. They like to load into one area and we milked one area for what it is worth and we are going to do the same tomorrow.”
Coming off their worst day of practice and drawing a later flight, England expected the bite to be tough. But when they arrived at their spot, it only took Perry and England about 20 minutes to land a limit.
While they caught predominantly spotted bass, two largemouth also made the trip with them back to the weigh-in at Green Pond Landing.
“We really didn’t know what we were sitting on and hopefully there are still some sitting down there tomorrow,” England said.
After highs in the upper 60s on Day 1, a cooldown is expected for Saturday’s final round. England said he isn’t sure what that will do to their bite.
“With conditions changing, you never know what is going to happen, and I think the high tomorrow will be in the upper 50s,” Perry said. “It’s not going to get nearly as hot as it did today. I think we are just going to go back to the same area and try to fill our limit and see how it goes from there.
“If we don’t have some big bites in the first few hours, we may run and scramble. We know there are some big ones there.”
Lesch actually fished by himself on Day 1 while Schibig interviewed for a job. Lesch managed five largemouth that lifted him into second place in his first Bassmaster College Series event.
“I still can’t really process (being at the top of the leaderboard),” Lesch said. “Over the summer I bought my own boat and it’s all coming together in a way I could have never hoped for.”
Building on what he found in practice, Lesch focused on shallow areas with moving baits.
“I had no idea what to expect. We found a lot of really good spots, but we didn’t know what the creeks were going to look like. The first creek I went to there were three people,” he said. “There is a ton of pressure right now. I went really far up the lake and found a really good pattern.”
After a consistent practice, Cully and Gaddis made about a 15-minute run up the Tugaloo River to start the morning and filled their limit quickly. A 4-8 largemouth anchored their bag and kicked off an important morning flurry.
“We got on one little stretch of bank and we caught three big ones back to back to back,” Gaddis said. “It was a grind after that. We pulled into another area and I lost a key fish that would have put us well over what we had today.”
Mechanical issues shortened their day, but Gaddis said he expects the fishing will continue to heat up.
“I thought people were going to catch them this week and I still believe they are,” he said. “Things are fixing to get right.”
The team of Brady Harp and Jordan McCaleb currently hold the lead for Carhartt Big Bass of the tournament with a 6-7 largemouth.
The full field will compete Saturday for a chance to not only win the tournament, but also earn a spot in the 2021 College Series National Championship. Teams will launch from Green Pond Landing at 6:45 a.m. ET Saturday, with weigh-in set for 2:45 p.m.
The tournament is being hosted by Visit Anderson.

Wetherell Stays Offshore To Take Lead At Bassmaster Open On Harris Chain
LEESBURG, Fla. — Alex Wetherell of Middletown, Conn., turned in a dominant performance during Friday’s second round of the Basspro.com Bassmaster Southern Open on the Harris Chain of Lakes with a five-bass limit that weighed 24 pounds, 14 ounces.
Alex Wetherell, of Middletown, Conn., is leading after Day 2 of the 2021 Basspro.com Bassmaster Southern Open at Harris Chain of Lakes with a two-day total of 45 pounds, 9 ounces. Photo by James Overstreet/B.A.S.S.
Added to his Thursday catch of 20-11, Wetherell now leads the event with a two-day total of 45-9.
Although he’s fished the Harris Chain only once before, Wetherell said he has figured out a couple of key details about Sunshine State bass.
“I’ve learned how to understand the grass and distinguish what I’m looking for,” he said. “I’m targeting offshore grass and there’s a lot of it out there. But just because you mark grass doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good.
“I found areas in practice and I’m expanding on those areas and really dialing in the sweet spots. It just seems that certain clumps of grass have fish and others don’t.”
Stating that the crisper, cleaner grass was best, Wetherell said he covered water until he got bit and then explored the spot to determine its potential.
“Once I get a bite, I’ll sit on that spot and work it very meticulously,” he said. “I’m using two particular baits — one to locate a (productive) area and one to fish it slowly.
“It’s really efficiency based. I want to be able to work a bait through the grass without getting hung up too much to where I’m not efficient in my cast.”
Similar to bed fishing, Wetherell found it beneficial to hit his key areas from multiple angles. In some instances, repetition was his ally.
“It’s amazing because you’ll make the same cast 15 times and then all of a sudden you’ll get bit,” he said. “I caught an 8-pounder pretty early in the morning and then I caught a 6.
“I had this bag and I lost (an estimated 7-pounder) so it was a pretty unbelievable day. I was done by noon and then I was just scanning around for other spots.”
Wetherell started in Lake Harris and then moved to Lake Dora after the first hour. His better bites came from Dora.
Jacob Foutz of Charleston, Tenn., leveraged a lucky break and fished his way into second place with 38-9. After catching 15 pounds on Day 1, Foutz added 23-9 Friday.
“Fortunately, they came up schooling around me and they were all big ones,” Foutz said. “It’s just one of those things that happens every couple of years.
“I caught three big ones and jumped off two other really big ones, so I could have had a really big day.”
Fishing in Lake Dora, Foutz watched the subsurface activity on his Garmin Panoptix LiveScope and caught his fish on a gizzard shad-colored jerkbait and a Texas-rigged Zoom Magnum Trick Worm in the red shad color.
Day 1 leader Patrick Walters of Summerville, S.C., is in third place with 37-5. The Bassmaster Elite Series pro held the top spot after Thursday’s opening round with 24 pounds, but he managed only 13-5 Friday.
“Today was the second day after a (cold) front and it was really slick and calm, so they didn’t bite as well,” Walters said. “Also, we had some muddy water and I didn’t relocate them until (late in the day).
“At 4:30, I moved farther into the little cove I was fishing and caught five fish in a row and saw more swimming by. I caught a good bag on Day 1 and I knew I couldn’t do that again unless something magic happened.”
Charles Proctor of Conway, S.C., is in the lead for Phoenix Boats Big Bass honors with his 9-0 largemouth.
Paul Gelles of Pingree, Idaho, won the co-angler division with a two-day total of 21-2. Gelles placed 14th on Day 1 with 10-13 and added 10-5 Friday to claim the victory. Charles Crumpton of Ocklawaha, Fla., won the Phoenix Boats Big Bass competition among co-anglers with a 9-1 largemouth.
The Top 10 anglers in the boater division will take off at 6:45 a.m. ET Saturday from Venetian Gardens (Ski Beach). The weigh-in will be held at Bass Pro Shops in Orlando at 4 p.m.
This year’s Opens circuit includes three divisions — Southern, Central and Northern — with three events in each. All nine tournament winners will earn an automatic berth to the 2022 Academy Sports + Outdoors Bassmaster Classic presented by Huk if they fish all events in their division. Additionally, the Top 3 finishers from each division’s points standings will receive an invitation to fish the 2022 Bassmaster Elite Series, as will the Top 3 from the overall standings accumulated in all three divisions.
The Falcon Rods Bassmaster Opens Angler of the Year title will award a $10,000 prize to the overall points winner in the boater division. The top co-angler will have entry fees into the Opens division of his or her choice fully paid for a value of approximately $5,400.
Lake County and the City of Leesburg are hosting the tournament.

Jordan Lee’s Lures for Spring’s ‘Lipstick’ Largemouth
Let’s be perfectly clear, Jordan Lee has never been to cosmetology school. But when the largemouth he catches in early spring appear to have lipstick on their mandibles, he knows exactly what color of lure to throw, and few work better than a vibrating jig or a spinnerbait.
“It seems like a lot of the bass you catch in early spring have those red lips either from digging for crawdads in the rocks, or just munching on a lot of red-colored crawfish, I’m not sure which, but they sure seem to like lures with red and orange on them,” says the Carhartt pro.
With water temps often in the high 40s or low 50s many anglers are prone to fish really slow, but Lee advises to keep covering water at a steady pace near obvious spawning flats very near to deep water access like a major creek channel.
“I tend to reach for the Colorado bladed spinnerbait with the orange/red kicker blade anytime the water is pretty dirty and still in the high 40s,” says Lee. “With the #5 Hildebrandt blade I put on there, it’s got a ton of resistance to let you really slow down and keep it in the strike zone longer.”
As water temps warm a notch into the 50s, few lures rival a vibrating jig often referred to as a ChatterBait. And few anglers will ever have a day that rivals the six bass totaling 36 pounds Lee caught in an MLF event on Lake Eufaula, Alabama in February 2020 with a vibrating jig. Two of those bass were 8-pounders.
“The bait I’ve got tied on in this photo is the exact bait I caught that insane bag on. A vibrating jig is just a straight-up fish-catcher in the pre-spawn, and it’s literally my favorite pre-spawn bait on the planet,” punctuates Lee.
He throws it on a 7.3:1 Revo STX reel spooled with 17-pound Berkley 100% fluorocarbon.
Look close though at the Chigger Craw trailer he dresses the vibrating jig with. Yup, you got it, Lee takes an extra minute to dye the pinchers orange. Doing everything possible to make his springtime lures look a little more like crawdads – sort of like a cosmetologist of bass fishing lures.
