PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. (July 31, 2023) – Boater Alec Morrison of Peru, New York, caught a five-bass limit weighing 21 pounds, 10 ounces, Saturday to win the MLF Phoenix Bass Fishing League (BFL) Presented by T-H Marine on Lake Champlain . The tournament, hosted by the City of Plattsburgh, was the third event of the season for the BFL Northeast Division. Morrison earned $6,537, including a $2,500 Phoenix MLF Contingency Bonus, for his victory.
“I basically had the same plan and area that I caught them in during the BFL here in early July,” said Morrison. “I stuck to the same game plan and fished only in the inland sea. I was running stuff I had caught them on for years. I basically just had to rotate spots and find which spots the big ones were relating to today. Once I was able to figure that out, I was able to catch a lot of fish and got six or seven quality bites.”
