Lake Mitchell

Higgings Ferry

16 October 2021      

​

                 The ninth of ten stops on the Golden Rod Bassmaster Tour schedule brought anglers to Lake Mitchell 60 miles south of Birmingham, Al.  Many thought this derby would be a momentum builder for Angler of the Year contenders heading into next month's season finale on Logan Martin. It was anything but the springboard some hoped for. 

               

              Mitchell was a tough bite and many will attest. Game day brought what turned out to be a substantial cold front. Rain and gusty northwest winds made  a challenging bite that much more difficult.  Despite unfavorable conditions early, anglers fought through adversity and made the best of a difficult situation.

​

             Taking the bull by the horns was none other than

Gardendale pro Dante' Goreed . The Guntersville champion tossed his signature crankbait technique to capture his second Tour victory of the season.  Goreed's five fish limit (6.09) gave him the victory.
