Bass XL Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 B.A.S.S. tournament officials and Nate Wellman have mutually agreed that Mr. Wellman will not fish any Bassmaster tournaments until March 2012. Mr. Wellman will not compete in the Bassmaster Northern Open this week in Syracuse, N.Y., and as a consequence of his withdrawal, Mr. Wellman will be ineligible to compete in the 2012 Bassmaster Classic. No changes have been made to the previously communicated penalties or the final tournament standings of the August 27, 2011 Bassmaster Northern Open held on Lake Erie. Wellman maintains his eligibility in the 2012 Bassmaster Elite Series. Good call Quote
preach4bass Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 That's the right action, in my opinion. I'm glad he agreed to sit out the Classic. It would have been selfish to give the sport's most sacred and viewed event a black eye. Quote
Sfritr Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 That is the right call on both parties... Quote
