Hollen steps it up

Earlier this morning I wrote a blog about not giving up on the odds of Cody Hollen moving from outside the Championship Sunday cut. That was based on his comment about having two other quality spots from which to choose. And even better, the spots are most productive after 10:30 a.m.

Well, the proof came aboard his boat at 11 a.m. That was when he caught a pivotal smallmouth weighing an estimated 4 pounds, 8 ounces. That catch moved him into 6th place in the BASSTrakk standings.

This is good news for Hollen, winner of the 2019 B.A.S.S. Nation Championship.
