Scott Martin gets his third tour victory up north

ne Walmart FLW Tour win on a particular lake
could be chalked up to a strong pattern and getting
a few good breaks at the right times.
Winning two on a particular lake demonstrates a strong
understanding of that fishery, constituting an advantage.
But to win three Tour events on the same lake, now we
are talking about master’s status.
In June, Scott Martin of Clewiston, Fla., earned his third
FLW Tour win on Lake Champlain, proving that he is among
the masters when it comes to Champlain in the summer.
His two previous Tour wins on the “Sixth Great Lake”
came in June 2004 and July 2009.
Martin now holds records for the most FLW Tour wins
with six, and the most Tour wins on a single lake with three.
