Martens lands No. 3

With a dozen observers standing on the bank above him and Mark  Zona in the boat with him, Aaron Martens just landed his third keeper of the day  a solid 2-pounder  on a crankbait.

 

It was quite a show, and drew a loud round of applause. There are about a dozen spectator boats out here as well.

 

Minutes before that, Martens lost another potential keeper halfway back to the boat.

 

A few puffy white clouds are in the sky now, but it continues to warm into a most pleasant day. Maybe that has something to do with the latest increase in fish activity.
