Bassmaster Elite Series: BASSfest 2016 part 1

Lake Texoma challenges the Bassmaster Elite at stop No. 6 on the 2016 bass fishing tournament series. Winning the Durant, Oklahoma, event equals qualifying for the Bassmaster Classic. The flooded lake added weird new cover to the field, including picnic tables, dishwashers and bathrooms.
Part 1 includes Day 1, 2 and 3.
Top 12: Greg Hackney, Brandon Card, Gerald Swindle, Chad Morgenthaler, Ott DeFoe, Casey Ashley, Rick Clunn, Dean Rojas, Jordan Lee, Randall Tharp, Keith Poche, Bradley Roy

Guys, thank you for coming to Texoma. I loved seeing my home lake fished by the best. I hope that the lake showed its worth even with the tough conditions and you would consider coming back and fishing it at normal levels. I'd love to see these guys attack it under normal conditions and see how they adapt to it.. Thanks again.

[@mitchconner2021]

Texoma is a pretty underrated bass fishery I mean it's known for it's striper as it should be but there's some nice ones in there and good smallies too.

Greg Hackney looks like he's got a TV mounted on the console of his boat, That Garmin is huge!

Casey Ashley hooked that bass at 31:55 outside of the mouth (unintentionally snagged it). It looked like he tried to hide it from the cameraman.

[@wesjanz]

inline4 lol he wasn't hiding it at all. I'm guessing it doesn't have to be hooked inside the mouth in Oklahoma/Texas. BASS follows state laws

[@jtmoney606]

inline4 I noticed that too

[@kennethsimmons1991]

Kevin VanDam is the best of the best but the Johnson Brothers are coming up
