Mark Crutcher and Bill O’Shinn both participated in the first tournament on Clear Lake in October - the Triton Owner’s Tournament West. O’Shinn and his partner captured a 3rd place finish with a two-day total of 42.30. Crutcher and his teammate climbed to 24th in a 93 boat field with a tournament total of 32.20.
his rat-l-trap, he has this tied on to 15-lb Seaguar fluorocarbon. He chooses a clear colored trap; Ghost Minnow is his preference. as the calendar pages turn into november and the cold fronts begin to show themselves causing the grass to further die off, he expects to find success with a 9-inch Jerry rago SKt inline Swimmer in light Hitch. He plans to throw this on Seaguar 20- to 25-lb fluorocarbon. “i’m hitting bottom with an open hook,” said Crutcher. “ Throw this on deep rocks like you would an alabama rig. When it’s time to catch 28 to 30 (pounds), this and the alabama rig is what you are going to use.” Crutcher opts for a Snakebite Baits umbrella rig with baby trash Fish on 20-lb fluorocarbon for his multi-arm setup. “occasionally, i will use a Basstrix,” he added.
