What's Behind The Velvick Revival? |
 California Bassmaster Elite Series pro Byron Velvick is in the midst of a comeback. Until recently, his name wasn't mentioned often unless the discussion turned to all-time weight records. He holds the BASS 3-day tournament record of 83-05 set at Clear Lake, Calif. in April of 2000.
But suddenly, Velvick's in the spotlight and near the top of the leaderboard more often than not.
After six tournaments in the 11-event Bassmaster Elite Series season, he's 35th in the Elite Series points and in position to qualify for his first-ever Bassmaster Classic.
His last three finishes were 15th at Lake Toho, 87th at Clarks Hill and 28th at Murray. He's 150th in the BassFan World Rankings, up from 228th where he started the year.
