Bass Fishing Aug - Sept 2017 | Page 9

WALK THE DOG Normally, when an angler recalls an on-the- water experience involv- ing “walking the dog,” he’s talking about a topwater bait. But not in the case of this Cody Meyer fish catch from day two of the FLW Tour event at the Potomac River in June. Meyer landed the keeper with an assist from Maryland co-angler Richard Roselle as some local spectators who were walking their dog watched from shore. For Meyer, the Potomac event put the finishing touches on another successful sea- son. He wound up fourth at the finale and sixth in the Angler of the Year standings. Meyer will fish his ninth consecutive Forrest Wood Cup this month. PHOTO BY CHAD LOVE 7
