Jocumsen with a giant – finally

Australian Carl Jocumsen was as disappointed as any angler who crossed the weigh-in stage on Day 1. After having a spectacular practice, when he caught two spotted bass in the 6-pound range, Jocumsen struggled to catch a limit weighing 13-0, which left him in 42nd place.

But Jocumsen may be back on the “giants” today. He landed a 4 1/2-pounder at 11:35. It gives him four bass weighing 10-8 this morning and moves him into contention to make the top 35 cut.
