Good Morning from the AFTCO Bassmaster Elite at Santee Cooper and two-time Bassmaster Angler of the Year, Brandon Palaniuk.
The Skeeter Yamaha Pro starts Day 2 in a area not too far from the takeoff at John C. Land Boat Ramp. “I caught all my fish in this general area yesterday,” said Palaniuk. “I did run around some, but my fish all came within eyesight of the ramp.”
The Prodigy, who had only four bass on Day 1, did collide with the right bass. He loaded up four bass weighing over 21 pounds, and an additional keeper would have only sweetened the pot. Palaniuk knows he’s around the right fish, but knows he’s going to need to capitalize on bringing five to the scales if he has any chance to hoist the blue trophy as he did here in 2020.
The Alpha Angler Megabass Pro is using a jerkbait presentation around some offshore stuff he’s located using his Humminbird Mega Live and mapping technology.
While live technology has been all the rage these days in tournament bass fishing, it’s often times knowing when not to rely on it that can often be key. Palaniuk’s no dummy. He’s around the bait, the bass and has all the greatest tools to ensure that he has every chance to have a great day!
