MINOCQUA, Wis. (Major League Fishing) — Check out some of the RFD-TV Now livestream highlights from Elimination Match 3 of the Knighten Industries Heritage Cup Presented by Bass Boat Technologies, the second of four events in the second year of the Fishing Clash Team Series.

Jacob Wheeler and Mark Daniels Jr. of Team O’Reilly Auto Parts were a finely tuned machine on Minocqua Lake. The duo ran away with the lead by a margin of more than 24 pounds with 30 scorable bass weighing 47 pounds, 3 ounces. Meanwhile, tensions remained high in the race for the final seat in the Knockout Round, as the three remaining teams were a honey hole away of making the cut.

Team 7Brew Coffee’s Zack Birge and Keith Poche will advance thanks to 16 scorable bass totaling 23-1. Hot on their tail was Team Smokey Mountain Caffeinated Pouches (Terry Scroggins and Casey Ashley) with 21-6 on 15 scorable bass. Meanwhile, Team B&W Trailer Hitches (Jared Lintner and Todd Faircloth) put up a good fight with 15-12 on 12 scorable bass.
