Introduction: We met Chris Zaldain back in January of 2010 during the annual media event at Lake Pardee hosted by Kent Brown of Ultimate Bass Radio. It was the year of the “Young Guns” with fresh, local talent joining the event and giving us a glimpse of what may lay ahead for the bass fishing tournament circuits. Indeed, with Zaldain in particular, this is exactly what transpired as we found out that he’s qualified to participate in bass fishing’s most prestigious circuit, Bassmasters Elite! We caught up with this shooting star to learn more about his journey and of course, the tools and techniques he favors to fill his livewell on tournament day.
Great article on a great guy. Met him briefly at Hi's one day, and he was very helpful and informative. I wish him the best of luck, go get those righties Chris!
Get your kids hooked on fishing, and they'll never have any money for drugs or alcohol.
