Photographer Garrick Dixon has the fun job of following leader Bobby Lane. They just entered the lock that connects Lake Kissimmee with Lake Toho.
Dixon reports that Lane has a limit swimming in his livewell, and that he’s now in the hunt to upgrade the catch.
That is highly likely, considering the strategy yesterday involved a milk run of spawning beds that stretched from end to end of both lakes.
Yesterday at the takeoff when I visited with Lane he brimmed with confidence. He always does but this time was special. As it should be. This is the first tournament of the year and it’s underway on his home lake. Look for good things to come today at the weigh-in.
