PLATTSBURGH, N.Y.<\/span>, Aug. 16, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — He called it love at first sight and that instant attraction, deepened by its subsequent bond-building, delivered\u00a0Bryan Schmitt<\/a>‘s third blue trophy with his four-day winning total of 81 pounds, 7 ounces in the\u00a0SPRO Bassmaster Elite at Lake Champlain<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

\n \"Maryland\u00a0pro<\/img>\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The seasoned pro from Deale, Md., first fished this picturesque natural lake straddling the border of New York and Vermont about a decade ago and immediately felt the connection.<\/p>\n

“I got blessed the first time I went here and luckily caught some big fish and that just made me fall in love with it,” Schmitt said. “I stumbled into two special spots and I learned right away what to look for, the combination. The success happened quick and it made me fall in love.”<\/p>\n

Schmitt’s Champlain love affair delivered a solid week that started with a Day 1 limit of 19-11 that landed him in 10th place. Schmitt added 19-7 in the second round and slipped to 13th, but he recovered with a Semifinal Saturday bag of 23-8 that pushed him up to second.<\/p>\n

Championship Sunday saw Schmitt close the deal with a final limit of 18-13. Edging\u00a0Chris Johnston<\/a>\u00a0by a pound, Schmitt collected the $100,000 top prize.<\/p>\n

“I’m speechless right now,” Schmitt said after taking the top spot. “I’ve got nothing but respect for everybody in this Top 10.”<\/p>\n

Schmitt had previously won twice at Lake Champlain, with victories in the\u00a02016 Northern Open<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a02021 Bassmaster Elite<\/a>. He also won the\u00a02022 Bassmaster Elite at Mississippi River<\/a>. This week, he fished north of Plattsburgh, on the New York and Vermont sides.<\/p>\n

Describing what felt like a random final-round search, Schmitt said: “I just kept going and going and going and every now and then, I’d get lucky.”<\/p>\n

After weighing mixed bags of largemouth and smallmouth the first two days, Schmitt filled his Day 3 limit with largemouth. In the final round, he focused on natural and manmade structure for a bag with four largemouth and one big smallie. He caught his fish from 2 to 25 feet with most of them caught in the deeper zone.<\/p>\n

“Today, I had to go back to where I caught the majority of my big bag of largemouth yesterday, but I knew something was wrong right away,” Schmitt said. “I fished it for 30 minutes and only caught one 12-incher. The wind switched from a north wind on Day 3, to a south wind and changed the current.”<\/p>\n

From that point on, Schmitt hopped between various hard spots \u2014 isolated small rubble, a rock vein, isolated boulders, and rock\/grass blends. He ended up catching his fish on a SPRO Rock Crawler Crankbait, a Neko-rigged Missile Baits Quiver Worm and a drop shot with a Missile Baits Magic Worm.<\/p>\n

“All week, it was different spots every day. Nothing worked the same from day to day. I think these are isolated fish and the spots are not replenishing.”<\/p>\n

Schmitt said he broke off two big fish late in the day. Thoughts of what could have been haunted him during the ride to check-in, because the math in his head was light.<\/p>\n

“I really didn’t know what I had because I only weighed a couple,” Schmitt said. “I thought I had over 16, maybe 17. I had no idea it would be this close.<\/p>\n

“I’m very thankful.”<\/p>\n

Hailing from Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Johnston took second with 80-7. Staying near the top all week, he placed eighth on Day 1 with 19-14, rose to third with a second-round limit of 21-7 and took over the Day 3 lead by adding 21-8. Johnston closed out his campaign with a final-round limit of 17-10.<\/p>\n

Following the basic game plan he’d executed most of the week, Johnston split his day between catching limit-filling smallmouth and looking for a couple kicker largemouth.<\/p>\n

Focusing on hard spots where big fish often position, Johnston was able to boat one big largemouth late in the day, but the bite was slower than previous days.<\/p>\n

“I caught a couple key fish on a Hideup Coike Fullcast rigged on a 4\/0 Gamakatsu frog hook with a 1\/8-ounce weight, and one big one on a power finesse drop shot,” Johnston said. “I knew I was running low on fish. They don’t reload a lot and I didn’t have enough new stuff to fish.”<\/p>\n

Seth Feider<\/a>\u00a0of New Market, Minn., finished third with 79-12. His daily weights were 19-8, 22-5, 18-9\u00a0and 19-6.<\/p>\n

After three days of balancing a smallmouth\/largemouth program, Feider committed his final day solely to the latter.<\/p>\n

“I left the smallies alone today, because it was a waste of time,” Feider said. “I spent two hours on them every morning and, at the end of the day, I wasn’t really weighing in many of them.”<\/p>\n

Feider caught his final-round largemouth by flipping deep grass with a Z-Man Big TRD\u00a0on a drop shot and a Texas-rigged craw.<\/p>\n

Caleb Sumrall<\/a>\u00a0of New Iberia, La., won the $2,000\u00a0Phoenix Boats<\/a>\u00a0Big Bass award for his 6-10.<\/p>\n

Trey McKinney<\/a>\u00a0of Carbondale, Ill., won the $1,000 award for leading the\u00a0Progressive Bassmaster Angler of the Year<\/a>\u00a0race with 635 points.\u00a0Drew Cook<\/a>\u00a0of Cairo, Ga., \u2014 the 2019 Rookie of the Year \u2014 is in second place with 634, followed by\u00a0Cory Johnston<\/a>\u00a0of Otonabee, Canada\u00a0with 633,\u00a0Bob Downey<\/a>\u00a0of Detroit Lakes, Minn., with 570, and\u00a0Brandon Cobb<\/a>\u00a0of Greenwood, S.C. with 561.<\/p>\n

Caleb Hudson<\/a>\u00a0of Lincolnton, Ga., leads the\u00a0Pro-Guide Batteries Bassmaster Elite Series Rookie of the Year<\/a>\u00a0standings with 538 points.<\/p>\n

Sumrall won the $2,000\u00a0Rapala CrushCity<\/a>\u00a0Monster Bag with his Day 2 limit of 24-4.<\/p>\n

Cook\u00a0won the $4,000 Toyota Bonus Bucks contingency award for the highest-placing eligible angler.\u00a0Carl Jocumsen<\/a>\u00a0of Toowoomba, Australia\u00a0won the $3,000 second-place award.<\/p>\n

Sumrall won the $4,000\u00a0Yamaha Power Pay<\/a>\u00a0contingency award for the highest-placing eligible angler. Cook won the $1,500 second-place award.<\/p>\n

Beau Browning<\/a>\u00a0of Hot Springs, Ark., won the $1,000 BassTrakk Contingency prize for the angler whose BassTrakk estimates are closest to their official weight.<\/p>\n
