Wired2Fish contributer and Evinrude pro Chad Brauer caught a tournament best 18-pound, 12-ounce limit of bass from the Red River Friday to hold a more than 5-pound lead going into the final day over second place angler Craig Schuff.
Brauer is fishing a variety of lures in a variety of depths, otherwise known as junk fishing, a popular saturation with the kitchen sink type of game plan that often works in river situations. He has brought 35 pounds, 11 ounces of bass to the scales the first two days, but he's not getting a lot of bites. He only had eight bites on Friday. But they are obviously quality bass.
The final day is Saturday. For more coverage of the event, check out
