Manuel Cruz was also officially recognized as the 2013 EverStart Northern Division Co-angler of the Year champion. The award brings an automatic invitation to fish in the 2014 Forrest Wood Cup.
“I knew it was going to be close,” said Cruz of his narrow win over co-angler Lenny Baird. “I was a little nervous yesterday when I lost a 3-pounder right at the boat. But once I (qualified) for the finals, I knew I had it wrapped up. So it feels great. That’s what everyone works to accomplish, making it to the Forrest Wood Cup. To know that I’m going to get to fish against some of the best is a wild dream come true. It’s awesome.”
5Bass must be sleeping, otherwise I would have imagined he would have posted this, since he "taught" Manny everything he knows! LOL! Congrats Manny.
