Photographer Garrick Dixon just found Chris Lane, who according to BASSTrakk is in 10th place with 51 pounds, 14 ounces.
Lane is fishing offshore and in a crowd of boats. He is fishing for a mixed bag, just to move up in weight, but his goal is not catching smallmouth. That makes sense, considering the post-spawn smallmouth are underweight and lethargic.
He told Garrick that catching three good largemouth will move him up in the tournament standings. Anything will help. Lane ranks 96th in the Toyota Bassmaster Angler of the Year standings.
