Walters boxes 24 for lead at Harris Chain Thursday, March 4, 2021 By B.A.S.S. Communications Staff When Patrick Walters happened across a golden opportunity, the Bassmaster Elite Series pro from Summerville, S.C., stepped on the gas and sacked up a five-bass limit of 24 pounds to lead day 1 of the Harris Chain Bassmaster Southern Open in Florida. Walters, who opened his 2021 season with a 4th-place finish in the Elite tournament at the St. Johns River, said he typically approaches Florida events by moving fast in practice to locate productive areas and then slowing down with methodical tournament execution. Thursday saw him go off script.
