Kriet with an 8-pounder

Tim Cook, who is overseeing the tournament judges, just informed me that Jeff Kriet just caught an 8-pounder.

Is that an indication the big bass bite will turn on earlier? The change in weather and the anglers dialing into the bite more on Day 2 are possible reasons.

Yesterday at this time the cascade of 4-pounders began showing up in BASSTrakk. Let’s see if the bigger fish begin registering on the score board.
