Ott DeFoe had a flurry for the ages during the final period of last year s Bass Pro Tour event at Lake Fork/Lake Athens.
By John Johnson
BassFan Senior Editor Ott DeFoe posted Top-12 finishes in four of the five Bass Pro Tour regular-season events in 2020 and ended up 2nd on the points list to Jordan Lee. The lone outlier was the Heavy Hitters Derby at the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes, where he ended up 44th.
In practice, he visited the moving-water locale that was exploited by Skeet Reese, Zack Birge and Adrian Avena the respective 5th-, 6th- and 8th-place finishers. Somehow, he saw nothing there to lead him to believe that it would be productive.
