ARKANSAS' MIKE MCCLELLAND REELS IN WIRE-TO-WIRE WIN ON GRAND LAKE

CITGO Bassmaster Elite Series, Sooner Run Marks Biggest Win of Angler's Career

June 4, 2006 - GROVE, Okla. In the biggest win of his career, 38-year-old Mike McClelland of Bella Vista, Ark., outpaced the entire field of CITGO Bassmaster Elite Series anglers, taking a wire-to-wire win on Grand Lake. McClelland,s four-day total of 79 pounds, 7 ounces earned him $100,000 and boosted his total BASS career earnings to nearly $500,000.

McClelland brought in a Day 4 catch of 14-8 and his nearly 80-pound tournament total bested second-place Texan Matt Reed by nearly 16 pounds. McClelland also outweighed prominent Elite anglers including 2005 CITGO Bassmaster Angler of the Year Aaron Martens and 2003 CITGO Bassmaster Classic champion Mike Iaconelli. Crowd favorites Edwin Evers and Ken Cook of Oklahoma also fell to McClelland.

"It,s kind of surreal, said the winner. I had 50 to 60 boats following me at one point today. Everyone,s been great, and the crowd on and off the water just kept me excited and pumped up.

Nearly 4,000 fans turned out at the final weigh-in at the North Beach Development, but for those who missed it, McClelland,s victory will air on The CITGO Bassmasters on Saturday, June 17 at 12:30 p.m. ET on ESPN2.

McClelland fished offshore structure the entire week, concentrating on rock and brush piles and throwing jigs and soft plastics.

Celebrating his win with nearly 30 friends and family members, McClelland said the experience was incredible. "It,s a special feeling, having all of them here, he said. "This win really solidifies me as an angler and solidifies where I am in my career. With the win, McClelland moved to 27th in Angler of the Year standings and 19th on the Bassmaster Elite Series Power Index. He,s also qualified for the Bassmaster Classic three times, won the 2005 CITGO Bassmaster Open Championship and has 11 top-10 BASS finishes.

2003 Bassmaster Classic qualifier Reed finished second overall with a final-day catch of 10-14 and a tournament total of 63-14. Keying in on offshore rock piles and points all week, Reed called Sunday a struggle, as he had just two keeper fish at 2 p.m. Fishing a 10-inch, plum-colored worm and a 5/8-ounce jig, Reed managed four more catches in the last 40 minutes of competition.

"I caught all I could today and didn,t lose a fish, said Reed, ranked 20th on the Power Index. "Mike has just fished phenomenally here. How he figured it out is awesome.

Third place Greg Gutierrez of Red Bluff, Calif., brought in a five-fish stringer weighing 14-11 and earned the Busch Heavyweight bonus, boosting his total to 63 pounds. Gutierrez fished jigs in three 50-yard stretches and concentrated his casts in water 3 to 8 feet deep.

Evers, of Talala, Okla., leapt from seventh to fourth place with a Day 4 catch of 11-14. He caught each day,s limits in water 20 to 25 feet deep on jigs and crankbaits. Evers, four-day total of 57-7 bumped him to 16th in Angler of the Year standings and ninth on the Power Index.

The remainder of the field finished as follows: Dean Rojas of Arizona in fifth (57-5); Paul Elias of Mississippi in sixth (57-2);Jeff Connella of Louisiana in seventh (56-12); Cook of Oklahoma in eighth (56-8); Martens of Alabama in ninth (56-1); Iaconelli of New Jersey in 10th (54-15); Chad Brauer of Missouri in 11th (54-12); and Jami Fralick of South Dakota in 12th (54-9).

$673,150 in cash was awarded to the top 50 Elite pros and valuable points towards qualifying in the Bassmaster Majors, CITGO Bassmaster Classic and the race for the CITGO Bassmaster Angler of the Year award.

The next stop on the CITGO Bassmaster Elite Series tournament trail is the Bluegrass Brawl on Kentucky Lake in Kentucky Dam Village, Ky., June 15-18.
