BENTON, Ky. (Sept. 16, 2011) – The Professional Anglers Association has declared Michigan professional angler Nate Wellman ineligible to compete in any of its events for a year.
Wellman was fined $2,500 and put on probation for one year by B.A.S.S. following an investigation into a complaint by his final day co-angler at the recent Bass Pro Shops Northern Open on Lake Erie. Wellman won the tournament. His co-angler reported to tournament officials that Wellman made repeated statements that, according to B.A.S.S., “were suggestive of a rules violation.”
