On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I am joined by none other than VA Elite 70 Alpha Series Angler of the Year Champion, Brandon Pritchett! Brandon has proven himself as one of the most consistent regional sticks, competing in both Major League Fishing and Bassmaster events, where he’s racked up multiple Top-10 finishes. This season, he claimed the Elite 70 Alpha Series AOY title, further cementing his reputation across fisheries like Smith Mountain Lake, the Chowan River, and the James River—just to name a few.
With over two dozen professional tournaments and nearly $11,000 in career winnings, Brandon brings a wealth of knowledge and competitive insight to the show. In this conversation, we’ll break down his tournament strategies, go-to baits, and step-by-step approach to dissecting Virginia’s toughest fisheries. Most importantly, we’ll talk about what it really takes to stay consistent, no matter what body of water you’re on.
Whether you’re a weekend warrior looking to sharpen your skills or a die-hard competitor chasing the next trophy, this episode is packed with strategies and lessons you can put to work right away. Don’t miss the chance to learn from one of the rising stars in Mid-Atlantic tournament fishing!
