Watching the Top 50 cut line

This might be a tournament where you could be in 50th place today and still qualify for the Top 12 final on Sunday. The numbers of 5- and 6-pounders in Grand Lake create opportunities for big comebacks.

But the point here is that you’ve got to make the Top 50 cut today. And Edwin Evers, who knows all about big comebacks on Grand Lake as evidenced by that Classic winning 29-3 final day bag in 2016, currently sits in 51st place in the BASSTrakk standings. Expect a cut-weight at the 30-pound mark.
