I have no idea how the catch rate is going for the rest of the field. But Christie is catching a keeper about every 5- to 10-minutes. None have culled yet. But they’ve been in that 3-pound range.
He’s undoubtedly hoping for that 5-pounder to show. He said he needed that type fish to have what he had yesterday.
They’ve just been really shy for him all week. He still has plenty of time and it’s obvious he’s staying here regardless. I’m sure he’s assuming that he doesn’t have a shot at winning without a 5-pound or better in his box. Or even more than one that size.
Not sure that will be the case. But it will be fun if that 5 shows up soon.
