The FLW Tour sees several tournaments spanning this coming weekend; they’re all minor tilts, however, as anglers fine-tune their approach ahead of the $1/5 million jackpot at Beaver Lake next weekend.
At Lake Mead in Henderson, Nevada, anglers fish from Wednesday through Saturday with a strong $1 million purse in play. First prize nabs $125,000 and second place goes home with 50K.
Brent Ehrler is the biggest name at the event and after day one he is seeded 22nd

Sean Minderman reflected on the problems plaguing him as he missed an opportunity to put the tournament out of reach, talking about his strategy and the shortcomings that frustrated him. “I went back to the same area I’d been to the last few days and did a lot of sight fishing,” said Minderman. “But I just couldn’t get on the fish today. I had been weighing in two smallmouth and three largemouth each day but I just couldn’t get on those big largemouth today. All I caught were smallmouth. After three days, you just start running out of fish.
“It was tough, it was mentally tough,” Minderman continued. “Every fish I caught seemed to be short today. Culling was really hard too because all of the fish were about the same size.”
Looking ahead, his plan for the tournament’s final day is as uncertain as the reasons for today’s bust. “I really think I need to go somewhere else tomorrow,” said Minderman. “I don’t want to do anything too drastic. And I have some ideas. But I’m pretty sure I’m going to have to find some new water. Then again, I just might wing it.”
