Many, La.- Glen Freeman took home a FLW trophy on Toledo Bend over the weekend.
Now, let’s take a look at the winning tackle that helped him best the nearest competitor by over 9 pounds. It is important to note that it came down to a lot more than simply tackle and bait on this one.
The constantly shifting winds meant that Glen had to also revise his strategy and fishing spots on the fly as well.
The Winning Tackle
Here is a quick rundown of the tackle:
- 7 foot Shimano rod, medium-heavy
- Lew’s reel, 7:1 ratio
- 17 pound Seaguar fluorocarbon
And of course, everyone wants to know the winning baits! Here they are:
- Texas Rig
- 10 1/2 Inch Yum MightEE Worm, Blue Fleck
- Booyah Football Jig with a Zoom Speed Craw trailer
Two pretty simple baits and rigs that really ended up delivering for Freeman.
See ya on the water…
