After another solid showing on Day 3 of the Guaranteed Rate Bassmaster Elite at St. Lawrence River, Stetson Blaylock found himself sitting in third place heading into Championship Sunday.
Much like Day 3, Blaylock’s morning got off to a relatively slow start.
After a bit of time passed with no bites, the Arkansas pro hooked up with his first keeper of the morning.
This would be a sign of good things to come, as Blaylock would find a group of fish in a feeding frezny.
Keeper number one is a good one.
A couple of casts later, Blaylock hooks up with another keeper.
In the span of 5 minutes, Blaylock put two four pounders in the boat.
It was an all out frezy, as Blaylock hooked up with another fish just moments after he boated his second keeper.
The Arkansas native throws back in there and hooks up again. For a short time, it was rare for Blaylock to make a cast without getting a bite.
Another good one to go in the box.
Blayock gets rigged back up.
The three time Bassmaster Classic qualifier rotated between a variety of baits, but a drop shot and small swimbait were key on Championship Sunday.
For the first time all morning, Blaylock hooks a fish that wouldn’t help.
After a bit of a lull, Blaylock hooks up with another good one.
At this point in the morning, he’s already got over 20-pounds, and knows that he’s going to have to have a really big day to have a chance.
