It didn't take long for Hank Cherry to put a bass in the boat this morning. He ran about a quarter-mile out of the no-wake zone at the takeoff area, shut it down and started throwing a topwater bait down the bank. He had a big blowup on his third cast. Four or five casts later he put a 2-pounder in the boat.
Takeoff was at 7:15. Cherry landed his fish at 7:30.
It appears he's throwing a Pop-R type bait.
If White Lake is as good as everyone says it is, that 2-pounder might not be in his livewell very long today.
