The Wheeler Lake Bassmaster Elite was a good one, lot's of big bass crossed the scales. Here is look at how the top three caught them!
Prince weighed in 20 bass weighing 80-15, one bait and one spot accounted for most of his weight. Price fished a hard spot in the grass a slow presentation was key,

#2 Ray Hanselman Jr
Finishing second Hanselman made things interesting in a tournament that was Princes to loose. Hanselman weighed in in 23-5 on Championship Sunday for a 20 bass total of 77lbs.
Targeting a shellbar and isolated stumps with a squaredbill and a big worm did most of the damage.
