When the pressure was on at Lake Tenkiller, Wes Logan turned to a heavy-cover flipping setup built around one critical component — the Gamakatsu G-Power Heavy Cover Worm Flip and Punch Hook. That confidence paid off in a big way, as Logan secured his second career Bassmaster Elite Series title by a razor-thin one-ounce margin with a four-day total of 63 pounds even. Built for punching through thick mats and hauling big bass out of nasty cover, the 3/0 G-Power Hook, designed by Aaron Martens, gave Logan the edge he needed when it mattered most. “There were several key fish I caught that came on that Gamakatsu G-Power Hook,” Logan said. “That hook is strong, sharp, and just flat-out dependable. I was flipping into the heaviest stuff on the lake and never once worried about losing a fish. That kind of confidence is everything.” Logan’s winning setup included a 1/2-ounce Ark Tungsten weight, green pumpkin punch skirt, and a Zoom Z Hog Jr. in green pumpkin, rigged on the G-Power Hook and spooled with 22-pound Sunline Shooter fluorocarbon. He paired it with his 7’6” Ark FAFO flipping stick to pick apart shallow flooded bushes, mats, and one key laydown that delivered multiple clutch bites during the event. After entering Championship Sunday in 3rd place, Logan delivered the biggest bag of the day at 16-14, anchored by a 5-1 largemouth that earned Phoenix Boats Big Bass honors. His final limit included a late-day cull — a 2-13 that upgraded a 2-11 — which ultimately made the difference in claiming the trophy. “Flipping is all about precision and power,” Logan said. “The G-Power Hook lets me lock in that bait and put it right where it needs to go — and when a big one bites, I know it’s coming out.” With another Elite win under his belt and a trophy earned in classic flipping fashion, Logan proved once again that the right hook can be the difference between a good finish and a career-defining victory.
