Michael Neal from Dayton, Tennessee competed in the Major League Fishing (MLF) Knockout Round yesterday in Kissimmee, Florida and won $50,000.

After a nearly one hour weather delay, Neal caught the winning fish to earn the cash prize and also the Berkley Big Bass trophy.

The Okeechobee MLF event concludes today with the Championship Round where the top eight finishers from yesterday’s Knockout Round will join Qualifying Round Group A winner Zack Birge and Group B winner Skeet Reese for their share of the remaining $325,000 of prize money.
