All,
A quick email to you to annonce that the Bassmaster 2010 just ends here in Alabama.
This was a wonderful world championship, with not an easy fishing and a lot of suspense...
Our 2 pro-staffer selected for the event, Jeff Kriet and Todd Faircloth, were on the very top the 3 days, fighting with the #1 world ranked Kevin Vandam.
Friday ends with a close weight for the 3 tournament anglers, showing the fishing will need the use of vibration bait as the bass were pretty lethargic with the cold water. Todd Faircloth's and Jeff Kriet's choice was the same, using mostly the SEBILE Flatt Shad to catch their fish.
Kevin Vandam 19.8
Todd Faircloth 18.2
Jeff Kriet 16.7
Saturday was a very tough day. Many anglers were not able to make it through, as last year world champion, skeet Reese. Kriet and Faircloth were keeping on using the Flatt Shad, as this bait was showing great results on these finicky bass. The results were very tight, the day ending with a 1 pound domination of Jeff Kriet with his Flatt Shad, mostly used in Blood red amber and craw perch colors; Todd Faircloth chooses to use a natural Holo Greenie patern.
Jeff Kriet 32.1
Kevin Vandam 31.15
Todd Faircloth 31.14
Sunday was the toughest fight as usual. Each angler was doing his best to make it to the top, Jeff Kriet leading most of the day while keep on using his Flatt Shad on a steady retrieve. Todd Faircloth style was most of a retrieve-stop-retrieve style. But Kevin Vandam hooked a 6lb largemouth bass not too far of the end of the fishing, keeping the lead to the last minut and giving him his third title - congratulation to that great angler as well to Jeff Kriet and Todd Faircloth which both were doing so good in a very tough tournament were many anglers were not able to catch their daily limits, and here at SEBILE USA we are very glad that our lipless crankbait Flatt Shad have helped our pro-staff anglers to get the runner-up and third place on the Bassmaster world championship 2010!
Final results day 3:
World champion: Kevin Vandam 51.6
Runner up: Jeff Kriet 46.6
3rd: Todd Faircloth 44.3
I will send you some more pictures to share with you the ambiance of these 3 amazing days here in Birmingham, Alabama, and we will send you very soon press release and interview of Jeff Kriet and Todd Faircloth!
Have a great day!
Patrick
