We're back in the creek were we started. Snyder mentions that the water has more color than yesterday. He looks to be right. It is a dark, drizzly, chilly day.
...
We leave the creek where Reese, Dove and Zaldain are fishing. There are fewer pros there now than there were yesterday afternoon. More of them may show up later.
...
Farther up the creek we find Skeet Reese fishing where we saw him working on a bedding bass yesterday. He's retrieving a popper over the spot repeatedly with hard, splashy twitches. After a few...
We've launched in a creek where we saw several of the pros fishing yesterday. I said I was going to give up the goods today, but I'm not going to mention this creek until tomorrow. It's...
Jacobson and I are following John Snyder, our boat driver, to a ramp that's closer to where many of the leaders are fishing. I'm good with that. It's in the mid 50s, it's raining...
Photographer Daren Jacobson and I are back at the bridge near the official launching site for the West Point Elite Series event. He wants to take more overhead photos of the pros passing under us...
Scott Rook zips in to a bank near the ramp where it all began this morning, the Payne Boat Ramp. He's moving right along but fishing a slow bottom bait.

We found Timmy Horton in the back of a small, quiet pocket with his Power Poles down. He pulls his Power Poles part way up moves his boat ahead a few feet and drops them down.

We left the creek where the pros are stacked like cord wood some time ago. After a good to bit of running we found Randy Howel fishing the very windy side of a bridge causeway. He says he has four...
Reese has apparently shown the bedding bass every bait he had on his deck. He stops fishing for several minutes to dig out other baits and tie them on.
...
Combs runs into a deep cut that has quiet water. He is still power fishing aggressively. Combs picks up after a few minutes of casting and idles farther up the creek past Boyd Duckett.
...
Keith Combs just passed us going in the other direction up one of the major creeks. Two spectator boats were following in his wake. We joined the caravan.
...
Combs moves to the riprap at the other end of the bridge. He has already attracted three boats full of fans. He leaves 10 minutes later with an empty livewell. He caught all his bass late...
