Browning repeats at Red River

SHREVEPORT, La. — Stephen Browning’s home water is the Arkansas River, but he might want to consider relocating to the Red River.

For the second straight year, Browning has won the Bass Pro Shops Central Open on the Red River. Last year he rallied from 12th place to first on the final day, but this year he only had to climb up from second place to repeat as the Open champion. The Bassmaster Elite Series pro finished with 44 pounds, 3 ounces earning the top prize of a Nitro Z9/Mercury 225 Pro XS valued at $40,000 and $7,765 in cash. He also cashed in on the Toyota Bonus Bucks prize of $1,500 for being the highest placing eligible Toyota pro and the Power Pole Captain’s Cash Award of $500. Toyota Bonus Bucks of $1,000 was paid to Aaron Johnson who was the second highest placing Toyota pro.

The area Browning caught all of his big fish on the final day of the tournament last year proved to be the key spot throughout the tournament for Browning this year. The Arkansas pro started Saturday with a small limit while his co-angler partner, Keith Glasby, got off to a fast start.
