Jared Lintner didn’t win the FLW National Guard bass tournament at Clear Lake on Saturday, but he did harvest his biggest payday of 2009.

The Arroyo Grande pro placed third in the tournament that attracted three other fellow Bassmaster Elite anglers. His compatriots finished 36th, 51st and 53rd in the field of 89 fishermen.

Lintner was consistent in the four days of competition, bringing to the scales limits weighing 20-6, 21-1, 20-12, and 20-2. His 82-pound, 5-ounce total bag weight earned him third place and a check for $32,328. Jared cashed a check in three of the eight 2009 Bassmaster Elite tournaments.

His best 2009 Elite finish was at Lake Amistad, Texas, the first stop of the tour, where he finished third and was rewarded with a $20,000 check. His Elite earnings for the year were $39,506.

Lintner’s next tournament visit to Clear Lake will be Mar. 18-21, the second stop on the 2010 Bassmaster Elite schedule.

The only time Elite anglers competed at Clear Lake was in 2007. Jared placed 9th.

The fall and early winter is a great time of the year to run – if only the sun would cooperate. Of course, it doesn't, amd while you may not be sweating bullets five minutes into your workout, you often have to do it in the dark. Headlamps are fine, but they don't necessarily provide enough light, particularly if you're going fast or running on tree-covered trails. But here's a solution that can be a big help: Nathan's Luna Fire chest/waist light. Rather than fitting around your head, this 250-lumen lamp is designed to be worn around your chest or waist. It's easily adjustable, so you can point the light exactly where you need it. You can also remove the light from the strap and clip it onto your jacket or hydration pack. The lithium-ion battery is rechargeable via a USB port, and on a full charge you'll get a burn time of 25 hours. For trail runners, this is an excellent option to light up your whole path – not just where your head is pointing. For those on the roads, you don't need to rely on those street lights anymore. And for everyone, you can enjoy the cool running weather without worrying about the sun.
