Menendez making a run for Huk biggest jump award

Mark Menendez began the day in 89th place, but he's a fast riser today. BASSTrakk currently shows him in 22nd place with 18-4. Huk Performance Fishing Apparel awards $1,000 to the angler at each tournament who makes the "biggest jump" from Day 1. Steve Kennedy received the $1,000 ceremonial check from Huk on-stage yesterday for his performance at BASSfest on Kentucky Lake.

 

"The problem with that is you have to dig yourself a big hole before you can win it," laughed Kennedy.

 

Kennedy was 69th on Day 1 at Kentucky Lake and finished 20th. He's making another run at the biggest jump award this week too. He was 63rd on Day 1. BASStrakk currently shows him with 15 pounds, which has him in 24th place.
