Western powerhouse anglers Brent Ehrler, Tim Klinger and Justin Kerr seemed to be duking it out down to the wire of the FLW Series National Guard Western Division event on Lake Mead this week and it was still up in the air which angler would pull out the victory on the final day. But the unlikely hero Joseph Caporuscio of Coto De Caza, Calif., brought 13 pounds, 11 ounces to the scales the final day, winning easily when the other four anglers in the top five failed to produce double digit weights on the final day.
This is just Caporuscio's seventh event since 2007 with FLW Outdoors and his first this year. More details on his win coming soon ... Be sure to check out
