Loughran on the hunt

Bassmaster Elite pro Ed Loughran has a limit for about 9 pounds. But he doesn’t feel secure yet.

He’s hoping to trade out at least one of the two squeaker spotted bass in his livewell for a largemouth.

“I’m looking for one more over,” Loughran said. “If I catch one more, I think I’ll be OK. If I don’t, I won’t.

“I could go catch all the spots I want, but that’s not going to help me.”

BASSTrakk currently has Loughran in 12th place, just more than 1 pound out of the Top 10 cut.
