Rick Clunn is doing what he does best, and has for the past 45 years. And that is excelling in challenging and changing conditions. While others are lamenting about the wind Clunn is bearing down on his areas and using his intuitive mental strength to find the pattern within the pattern.
What’s so cool about Clunn’s move into third place in BASSTrakk is his old school approach. Using a spinnerbait and plastic worm in tandem is a most unusual tactic in this day of specialized techniques and lures. The worm is another story. It is of the same style as the original Gator Tail worm made by Ditto Manufacturing in nearby San Mateo.
Time and time again, Clunn has thought outside the box to win. When Clunn won here in 2016 the wind was blowing like it’s doing now. Could more Clunn magic be on the way? My bet is yes.
