Cliff Pace, 2013 Bassmaster Classic, Day 3 Weigh-In with 2 of his winning bass from Grand Lake Oklahoma February 24Only three states sent more pros to the 2013 Bassmaster Classic than Michigan. But despite the state's strong representation - three qualifiers, including four time winner Kevin VanDam - Michigan pros were unable to match the consistency of Mississippi's lone representative, Cliff Pace.

Pace showed great confidence in a jerkbait bite he knew wouldn't really kick in until mid-day. Anchored by his late-day, jerkbait heroics, he surged to a seemingly insurmountable seven pound lead going into the final day on the strength of 21 pound limit catches on days one and two.

Not sure i ever saw any footage of Wellman or JVD in the tv shows.  Both had decent finishes.

KVD and JVD had good finishes... Wellman didn't even make the cut.  Not a Wellman fan anyway.
