Strader vaults in lead with limit

Wesley Strader just landed his fifth keeper bass, a 3 and 3/4 pounder, using a white Zoom Z-Craw, and fishing right up against the bank.

BASSTrakk has his limit at 13 pounds 12 ounces, putting him 1 pound and 13 ounces ahead of Skeet Reese. We believe his fish weigh closer to 14 and a half pounds. Though Reeseā€™s weight may be conservative as well.

At nearly 10:00 Strader has only the second limit of the morning. Bobby Lane has five fish for 10-7.
