Summer Isn't the Only Thing Getting Hot...


So is the five-way race for Angler of the Year in the 2017 Dewey Mullins Memorial Bass Tourney Series. Less than three points separate these competitors.

Here is how the race stacks up at the moment:








Leading the charge is Bobby Moore, who has weighed an accumulative total of 101.26 lbs. of bass to date.









The first runner-up is Rob Peppers, whose accumulative total to date is 100.86 lbs.





In the next runner-up position is the team of (from left) Bob Glass and Randy Conkle, both with an accumulative total of 100.75 lbs. to date.









And then comes Al Napier, who has accumulated a total of 99.36 lbs. to date.















Finally, we have Duane Kessel, who is Bobby Moore's partner most of the time. One instance when they didn't fish as a team accounts for why Duane's current accumulative total is 98.89 lbs.







A couple other competitors these fellas have to watch are Chris Fretard and Don Carter, with 81.04 lbs. and 79.57 lbs., respectively.

All of these anglers are veterans of the Dewey Mullins Memorial Bass Tourney Series and current Classic qualifiers. This year marks the first time since I introduced the Angler of the Year Award to the series that there has been this kind of competition, and I'm enjoying every minute of it. I wish all the competitors the best of luck.
