By editor on Sep 16, 2011 | In Pro Anglers, PAA | Send feedback »

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." more »
