Takahiro Omori, who rocketed from 72nd place after Day 1 to fourth place yesterday with 23-3, is still hot. He caught a 4-plus-pounder on his third cast this morning, according to photographer Seigo Seito.
And within his first 10 casts of the day, he’s gpt two of those in the boat, the second one slightly bigger than the first. He’s probably got 9 pounds on two fish within 15 minutes of takeoff. Randy Howell, by the way, is about 400 yards away from Omori.
