Canadian Cory Johnston just missed going wire-to-wire and securing a second Bassmaster Open title at the St. Lawrence River on Saturday.
Johnston, of Cavan, Ont., went into final-round action atop the leaderboard with 49 pounds, nine ounces, and a lead of one pound, three ounces over American Jody White. But White weighed a five-fish limit of 23 pounds, 10 ounces for an overall total of 71 pounds, 15 ounces to finish one pound, 14 ounces ahead of Johnston.Johnston won this event in 2021, the last time an Open tournament was held on the St. Lawrence.
Johnston doesn’t have much time to think about what might’ve been. He’ll resume the ’23 Elite Series schedule next week on Lake St. Clair in New Baltimore, Mich. Bruce said his initial thought was to fish near Waddington but ended up making the long trek to the lake. And after hooking deeper fish the first two days of the tournament, Bruce said he looked shallower Saturday.Article content
