Seth Feider became the first angler with a five-bass limit today – at 8:21 a.m. His fifth fish was the smallest in his livewell so far, a 2-12. BASSTrakk shows him with 17 pounds, including a 4-8. But those are all estimates, and I’d estimate Feider has at least 18 pounds.
He’s right on track with what he estimated would be the winning weight this week at Lake Champlain. “It’s going to take right at 80 pounds,” Feider said Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Feider’s got 76 pounds, at least, at 8:30 a.m.
