The expected fireworks at Lake Fork have officially begun. Brandon Cobb and Patrick Walters have won the two Bassmaster Elite Series tournaments held here the last two years. Cobb began his day with a 6-pound, 5-ounce bass, and Walters topped it minutes later with a 7-1.
“My hands are shaking,” Walters said.
Cobbs’ winning weight in May 2019 was 114-0. Walters won in a runaway last November with 104-12. New Bassmaster century belts, for every angler topping 100 pounds, will undoubtedly be ordered after this week.
