STURGEON BAY, Wis. – Berkley pro Scott Suggs headed into his first Qualifying Round of the Covercraft Stage Five Presented by Abu Garcia sitting at 35th in the Points Championship race, just five spots above the Qualification Line. With that fire to maintain his position, the Arkansas angler hit Sturgeon Bay prepared to catch some smallmouth bass.

While Suggs was unable to surpass Justin Lucas for the lead, he was one of three MLF pros to cross the century mark on Day 1. Suggs ends his day with 33 bass for 119 pounds, 4 ounces, setting himself up for success in Group A’s Qualifying Round 2.
