How does a team this good not have a Team of the Year in their back pocket? Points Race Here.
We have our opinions and are very proud that our changes to the team format, equipment and procedures have helped shine the spotlight on the best of the very best anglers on the Elite Redfish Series and the sport overall.
On the Elite Redfish Series anglers must be able to locate, catch, land and release tournament winning redfish consistently during high pressure events both on familiar and unfamiliar waters as this team this year notching a top 5 finish in Jacksonville Florida and do so with standardized and regulated equipment, formats and procedures.
The season started with this team taking a solid 2nd place at the kick off event in February, a win in the 2nd event of the season, a solid 3rd in Jacksonville Florida and finished this past weekend with another top 5 finish, 3rd place.
“Consistency is the key and locating and landing good fish at each event was our goal, this is what we really wanted.” Barnie White told the great group of people gathered at Rigolets Marina Saturday in Slidell, LA. as he spoke of the Team of the Year award. Team Blazer Bay Boats White/Mills totalled 1634 points while their closest challengers, Billiot/Dowdy finished with 1621.
For their consistency and excellence this team is the first team to punch a ticket and will represent the Elite Redfish Series at the no entry fee 2022 Bassmaster Redfish Cup $100,000.00 Championship taking place in November. Check out the 2021 Bassmaster Redfish Event Here.
Congratulations Barnie and Dwayne have represented themselves, their family, friends and fans as well as the sport very well and we are proud to call you Elite Pros. Good luck in November, we will all be watching every cast live from start to finish and pulling for you.
