Since winning the Forrest Wood Cup in August of 2015, Brad
Knight’s 2016 follow-up Walmart FLW Tour season has not been what he had hoped,
collecting just one check in the first four events. Today the Lancing, Tenn.,
resident took the first step in righting the ship with a five-bass limit
weighing 23 pounds, 6 ounces for the day-one lead at the FLW Tour on Kentucky
Lake presented by Mercury and hosted by the Kentucky Lake Convention and
Visitors Bureau.
“Man, I’ve had enough of the bad this year,” Knight says. “It’s
time to get this thing turned around and what better place to do it than on the
Tennessee River.”
Knight’s limit was anchored by the day-one big bass, weighing in
at 8 pounds, 9 ounces.
