For years, Hunter Schlander has followed the fishing careers of Ish Monroe, Robert Lee and Stephen Tosh, among others who’ve risen to prominence on the West Coast. When they spoke, he listened, hoping to pick up a tip he could implement in his own fishing repertoire.

The 27-year-old has been an occasional competitor in the Western Division of the FLW Series since 2008, when he logged a top-10 finish at the California Delta. He posted another top-10 in 2015 at Lake Havasu, then another last year at Clear Lake.

Earlier this year, he struggled to a 104th-place finish at Havasu and was on the verge of pulling out of the event at the Delta last week after the powerhead in his outboard let go at the Wild West Bass Trail team tournament at the Delta on May 6.

“I didn’t think I could fish the FLW event,” Schlander said.

After a loaner boat became available through a marina in his hometown of Modesto, Calif., he was able to compete against Monroe, Lee and Tosh at the Delta. Not only that, he beat them all, erasing a 5 1/2-pound deficit on the final day, to capture his first FLW Series victory.

“I’m young, so I looked up to these guys growing up,” Schlander said. “To go up and fish against them is a task of its own. To beat them, it’s humbling. It hasn’t sunk in yet.”

After totaling 35-04 over the first 2 days, Schlander bagged a final-day best 21-13 to finish with 57-01, topping Lee by nearly 7 pounds after Lee came in with just 9-03 on Saturday.

Lee’s day-3 struggles were indicative of the challenging fishing found up and down the Delta system last week.

“It was really tough fishing,” Schlander said. “The problem was only a handful of areas were fishing well. As good as these guy are, especially the local guys, we were all fishing the same stuff.

“There was a lot of traffic in those areas and the areas that were fishing good weren’t even fishing that good. It was a pretty big grind. Three- and 4-pounders were hard to come by and you had to get lucky to catch a 7 or 8. I opted to stay in the same areas and grind it out, hoping to get three or four of the right bites each day. It’s not fishing like it usually does in May.”

Below are some additional details about how Schlander dealt with the Delta.

Ignored the Chatter

Leading into the tournament, there was plenty of talk about bed-fishing being a viable option for anglers targeting bigger fish, but Schlander purposely avoided the dock talk and tried to develop other options that might be more durable.

“Guys were talking about big bed-fish, but if you looked at the weather coming in, it was supposed to cool down and the wind was due to blow,” he said. “I looked at the weather a couple days before, so I scrapped that. I tried to find reaction fish and maybe spawners I couldn’t see.”

His practice session was hampered by him not having a boat. For a couple days prior to obtaining the loaner, he practiced with Vincent Bernal, his partner in Wild West Bass Trail events.

“That made it tough because we were essentially fishing the same stuff,” he said

On Tuesday, he was able to get back on the water himself and was able to expand on what he’d already found.

“A lot of guys were saying there was 30 pounds of bed-fish around, but I was focused on reaction fish and I went into some areas where you could see on low tide some bed-fish,” he said. “I figured maybe later in the day I could blind fish for them with a Senko.”

Ride the Tides

Schlander knew going into the tournament that a lot of his success would hinge on his timing in relation to the tides.

“The more you learn the Delta, the tides have everything to do with how you’re going to catch the bigger fish,” he said. “Those fish are so in tune with what that tide’s doing that if in you’re in the wrong spot, you won’t catch ‘em. It takes time to learn that.”

He relied on a 1-2 punch of cranking riprap banks in canals in the morning on the high outgoing tide before running north to target tule berms with a wacky-rigged Senko later in the day.

A line of hydrilla growing just off the riprap needed to be present for his cranking program to work. That created a visible path of clean water between the bank and grass. During the key timeframe until about 10:30 a.m. each day, he’d bang the crankbait off the rocks and trigger bites that way.

He had multiple areas where this scenario was present, but he had to be efficient with his time. On day 1, he had a 12-pound limit within 15 minutes, then moved to a second stretch of riprap, which was already getting hit by a dozen or more boats.

“I jumped into the middle of it all,” he said. “I found a gap between a couple boats and within 10 minutes, I had a 5- and a 4-pounder.”

He bolted for his third spot and caught a couple 3 1/2-pounders to cull up to about 17 pounds. After the tide pulled out, he went north and flipped a Senko around where he figured fish were still spawning and caught a couple more upgrades to top out at 19-03 for the day.

“I wanted to catch 20 because I figured if I could catch 20 a day, I could make the cut,” he said, adding he racked up 30 bites. “That was the goal and I’d go from there.”

Coming back to weigh-in on day 2, he was admittedly down because he figured he’d blown his chance to make the top-10 cut. Instead, his 16-01 moved him up five places to 2nd.

“I couldn’t believe I was in 2nd,” he said. “The weights really dropped off. I was in the middle of the pack (flight-wise) and figured I’d drop, but it held up.”

He said the only difference from Thursday was the afternoon bite wasn’t nearly as strong up north.

“The wind really blew hard and made it hard to fish the Senko weightless,” he said. “I caught maybe 15 fish all day.”

Magic Morning

Facing a 5-pound deficit to Lee entering the final day, Schlander figured he was fishing to protect his place in 2nd.

“It was a lot to overcome,” he said. “If I could get 22 or 23 pounds, I figured I might be able to beat him, so I went out with a mindset to get 20 pounds.”

Within 5 minutes, he cranked a 5 1/2-pounder, basically erasing the gap between himself and Lee. After encountering another finalist at his next spot, he moved on to a third area and caught one approaching 8 pounds and another 5-pounder to give himself roughly 18-plus pounds with three fish, all before 9 a.m.

“I said, ‘This is my shot to do it,’” Schlander added. “I figured I still had 90 minutes left on the cranking fish. I caught a couple of 2-pounders and still had the chance to cull up later on the Senko fish.”

Except an upgrade never occurred, and Schlander’s nerves paid the price.

“When my water ran out down south, I ran up north,” he said. “I didn’t cull any, but my co-angler caught a 5 1/2. I didn’t catch any more upgrades. In the back of my mind, I kept feeling like I needed one more fish. When my co-angler caught that fish, I thought, ‘That was the one I needed to get over the hump.’”

As it turned out, he hit his goal of catching 20 pounds and the 21-13 was more than enough to give him the win. No one else in the top 10 caught more than 16-11 on the final day.

“It was definitely a game of fishing water that hadn’t been picked apart yet,” Schlander said. “I had one area nobody was touching and I had two other areas that were getting a lot of pressure. I had to hit them as soon as the tide started heading out. If guys went through them on high tide, I wouldn’t worry about it because when I saw the tide starting to pull out, I felt comfortable going behind someone and catching fish.”



Winning Gear Notes

> Cranking gear: 7’1” medium-heavy Daiwa Tatula crankbait casting rod, Daiwa Zillion SV TW casting reel (6.3:1 ratio), 17-pound Seaguar AbrazX fluorocarbon line, Lucky Craft Silent Fat BDS 4 crankbait (mad craw/delta craw).

> While he typically opts for 15-pound test when cranking the Delta, Schlander went with 17-pound last week because “I felt like it was keeping the bait just high enough to tick the top of the grass and not get hung up,” he said. “That way, I wasn’t losing half of my cast because it was fouled up by grass.”

> The crankbait was an older model and he only had one of them. It got hung several times, but he was able to retrieve it each time, going in shoulder-deep on occasion to free it up.

> Schlander said if he were to list his 10 favorite baits on the Delta, a crankbait would be at the bottom of the list. “I’m not usually a cranker, but what made it weird is I found the bite, but didn’t have a ton of confidence in it,” he said. “When I got that boat, I had to try it and I caught four over 6 pounds on the last two days of practice and said, ‘This is what I need to do.’”

> He switched the stock hooks to #2 round bend trebles from Trapper Tackle. The hooks are slated to be introduced at ICAST in July.

> Flipping gear: 7’3” medium-heavy Daiwa Zillion casting rod, same reel, same line, 2/0 Gamakatsu wacky hook, O-ring, 6” Gary Yamamoto Custom Baits Senko (watermelon red).

> Schlander employed a slow presentation with the Senko, letting it sit for up to 30 seconds before twitching it or retrieving it.

The Bottom Line

> Main factor in his success – “Knowing the tides and the type of grass I was fishing. You had to find the right type of grass, which was clean hydrilla, and rotate those areas. Fishing fresh water on the right tide was key. Also having confidence in what I was doing, knowing I’d only get a few good bites a day.”

> Performance edge – “The Trapper Tackle treble hooks. In practice, I lost a few fish on standard hooks and I was telling a friend (Vince Hurtado), who had some of the Trapper trebles. He gave me a few to try and they really paid off for me. A few other guys were doing the same thing as me, including a few in the top 10, and every one told me they’d lost a few key fish. I didn’t lose any.”

Notable

> Schlander’s loaner boat came from CNC Marina in Modesto. Jim Moulton owns the marina and is competing on the FLW Tour this year. “I’m so thankful they did that for me,” Schlander said. “Borrowing a boat is a lot to ask for someone.”
