Zvorak / Larson take win on Clearwater, two tournaments, two different days, one winner.
John Zvorak and Mike Larson take the win two days in a row. The team won on the previous day on Washington/Stella, and came thru for the win on the second day on Clearwater with a very tough bite. Zvorak and Larson bested the field under some tough fishing conditions. The team reported catching all their fish by 10:00 am, fishing plastic on drop offs. This is the first time the team has fished Clearwater in 3 years. They had a game plan before the tournament and stuck to it, fishing jigs and plastics. They reported catching their fish off of the main lake. John and Mike brought 14.82 lbs of fish to take the win.
2nd place team, Zeppelin and Zeppelin with 13.90 lbs of fish. Wayne and Jason decided to go a little deeper than normal. They felt because of the tournament the day before, Clearwaters shallow fish may have had pressure on them. The wind was down so it helped the team. They put their boat in 12 feet of water and casted shallow and fished very, very slow. They caught their fish through out the day, but caught their big fish about midway thru the tournament. The team used soft plastics through out the day. The team didnt do much pre-fishing and the fish caught tournament day were not fish they had pre-fished for.
3rd place team, Peterson and Hefti with 13.21 lb of fish. Mike and Bob reported fishing a deep weed line and staying on the main lake all day. The team fished 3 spots all day, they caught their limit within the first twenty minutes of the tournament. An hour later reported catching a few more fish. This was the 2nd time the team has fished this lake. The team used black and blue jigs and green jigs. The team pre-fished one day.
