Hartman lands 20 lbs in 42 minutes

The fireworks – big-time fireworks – started for Jamie Hartman immediately today. Hartman landed 20 pounds, 10 ounces in the first 42 minutes after the 6 a.m. takeoff. The smallest part of that was a 1-12 cull, so Hartman’s best five weigh 18-14 and include a 5-14 and a 5-0. He started the day in 10th place, 7-2 behind leader Matt Arey’s 62-13. Hartman’s got 74-9 now, unofficially.
