Vicious Fishing pro staffer John Crews of Salem, Va., won his first Bassmaster Elite Series tournament Sunday by one ounce on the California Delta in a nail-biting finish to open the season.
Crews caught 20 bass weighing 72 pounds, 6 ounces, for the win by one ounce over Skeet Reese of Auburn, Calif. It was the first Elite Series tournament of the season.
A 5-pounder caught on his last flip of the day secured the win for Crews. He specifically pitched soft plastic baits all week, targeting an area of thick hydrilla about 4-8 feet deep in a dead-end canal. The fish there were not as affected by the Delta’s legendary tidal movements and Crews patiently picked it apart for four days.
