In June 2016, he led himself and his team partner, Gary Barrett, to the top of the Wild West Bass Trail leaderboard at the 2016 WWBT California Teams Championship.

returned in May 2017
to
successfully defended his WON Bass Open title, with another wire-to-wire win, becoming the first-ever, back-to-back California Open champ.
The triumphant run has been quite a feat and leaves us asking … hmmm…. Who is Wayne Breazeale,
what does he know about
Clear Lake that we don’t
and what has
2016 WWBT California Teams Championship - WWBT
made him the King of Clear Lake.
We got the deets with 10 Questions for Breazeale.
Q: How long have you
been and how often do you
fish Clear Lake?
A: I moved here
permanently when I was 12; but we had a summer home up here before that. I’ve been fishing for about 40 years and I spend about 60 days or less on the water. I probably fish here a lot less than everyone thinks I do. I like to ocean fish more than anything – salmon, tuna, striper, halibut – all that stuff. My grandfather’s the one that taught me how to fish. He had a big boat out in the ocean and took me from age two to 17. That’s how I learned to fish.
