This marks the final week that anglers can go and sign up to win the fishing trip in Cajun Country with Elite Series Pro Cliff “The Cajun Baby” Crochet. Fisherman can go to www.rat-l-trap.com to enter. May 1st will be the cut-off date to sign-up so there’s only several days left to get in. “The Cajun Baby” Cliff Crochet has been fishing from the time he can remember growing up in the Atchafalaya Basin in southeast Louisiana. Cliff joined the Lake Verret Bass Club in 2000 and began doing well in Federation Nation events. He became the youngest-ever Louisiana State Champion in 2006 and set his eyes on fishing professionally. From 2007 to 2009 Cliff competed in the Bassmaster Open series and qualified for the 2010 Bassmaster Classic and an invitation to fish in the Bassmaster Elite Series.
As a rookie on the Elite Series, Cliff nearly won the Clark’s Hill event, finishing 2nd by 1 ounce. Cliff was also runner-up in the Rookie of the Year race. During his second and third seasons on the Elite Series Cliff has continued to develop his trade and increased his career B.A.S.S. earnings to $157,935. He has also competed in the Bassmaster Open series during those years.
At age 18 Cliff began serving in the Assumption Parrish police force and is now a Deputy Sheriff as his tournament schedule allows.
