Lee & Ware Go Back-to-Back on Richland Chambers with 35-10!
CORSICANA, Tx (May 4, 2024) – For the final stop of the 2024 Bass Pro Shops & Cabela’s Texas Team Trail presented by Progressive regular season, anglers were met with unpredictable fishing conditions on Richland Chambers in Corsicana, Texas. The TXTT visited the lake in 2023, and the winning team was Russell Lee and Landon Ware with a weight of 31-01 This year, trying to defend their title, they came to weigh-in with a five-bass limit in their Rapala “Crush City” bag weighing 35-10 to take the back-to-back victory. For the win, the team takes home a 2024 Nitro Z-18 with 150hp Mercury motor, a new Garmin graph, Power-Pole Charge system, and Angler’s Advantage cash. In total, the duo cashed in on $45,078 in cash & prizes.
“Today was all about fishing history, and doing a lot of what we did last year to win this tournament,” said the team. “We fished a lot of rocky areas with an XCITE Baits Raptor Tail Worm to catch all of our keepers.”
The team went on to say during their post tournament interview that they didn’t catch all of their weight until around 1:30pm in the afternoon. They started the day out with a flurry but then things just got really slow and they finished out their limit with that last afternoon bite.
“Our experience on this lake really helps us out a lot here, and we just fished clean all day.”
Lee & Ware also earned the Power-Pole Big Bass Award with a 9-09 Richland Chambers monster. In addition to everything they took home for the win, they also have a new Power-Pole Pro Series II for the Big Bass honors.
