Baumgardner fourth
Rising one place to fourth was Gastonia, N.C., pro Chris
Baumgardner.
After sacking limits of 14-5, 10-15 and 12-0, Baumgardner managed another five
bass Saturday that weighed 12 pounds, 2 ounces to finish with 49-6. Like Grigsby
and Thrift, Baumgardner started his tournament on spawning smallmouths. Unlike
those two, he wasn’t looking at them.
“I wasn’t sight-fishing, but those ones I caught the first two days – I knew
they were there,” he said.
Baumgardner’s bait of choice for bed fish was a Zoom Magnum Trick Worm.
Over the final two days, he tapped into a shad spawn on a natural rock bank
“The fish weren’t on them good, but you could catch a few. I tried to expand on
that today, but it was tough. I only caught five.”
Friday and Saturday Baumgardner used a new Brian’s Bees wakebait called a Long
Wake Bee. (Superman) Throughout the tournament he fished a midlake area in
Loudoun.
“After Norman, I was pretty down about not doing well on my home lake. So this
feels pretty good. I was
never on any of those 16- to 20-pound bags. I caught what I could
catch.”
"I could give a
lot of reasons why I use Brian’s Bee’s crank baits. From the superior color
patterns to the unique homemade designs to the variety of baits to choose from,
but the bottom line is that I simply catch more fish with these crank baits than
any other that I have used, they catch fish! period. You know, Brian is a bass
fisherman too and understand what it takes to make fish bite he also listens to
other fisherman (some of the top names in tournament fishing) and incorporates
their input into the design of each bait, but best of all he is dedicated to
making the very best crank bait he can and he truly cares about each and every
bait. That’s why when people ask what crank bait I caught all those fish on I
just smile and say Brian’s Bee’s made with love by Brian Huskins."
