FEAR THE TURTLE 

Bill Lowen Angling for Second Classic Berth

Story by Pete Robbins

Norman, OK – For a self-professed river rat like Ohio’s Bill Lowen, the 2008 BASS Elite Series schedule seemed less than ideal – eleven tournaments, not one of them on a free-flowing or tidal river. But as he proved this past weekend with a second place finish at Tennessee’s Old Hickory, he can apply his river fishing expertise to impoundments as well, and the result so far has been a 17th place position in the AOY standings and a likely spot in the 2008 Bassmaster Classic.

In his rookie year of 2006, Lowen notched two 4th place finishes, at Sam Rayburn and Table Rock, respectively, on his way to a spot in the Lay Lake Classic. But last year he stumbled substantially, finishing near the middle of the pack in the AOY race (50th). Based on what he’s done in 2008, it appears that his sophomore slump was the aberration, not his rookie success
