It’s been two years since BASS has been to Clear Lake, and there are quite a few anglers who are anxious to get back. The last go-around was the Western OPEN in the middle of October 2005, and the weights were heavy, but not overly impressive. There were plenty of familiar Californians entered: Skeet Reese, Ish Monroe, Byron Velvick and Fred Roumbanis. James Overstreet
Jared Lintner holds up his seventh place fish on Sunday at the Duel in the Delta. He hopes for even more success this week on Clear Lake.

Also entered was a 22-year-old mustache-wearing milkman who hadn’t quite made his name with BASS. It took 49 pounds, 15 ounces for Jared Lintner to best the field, and it launched a career that is now in full bloom.
