Brace for the big ones

Talk has been of tough fishing, but this is Santee. Anglers may not be getting many bites but they are often big when they come. Masayuki Matsushita just boated this 5-pounder, giving him three fish for 9 pounds, 8 ounces total and the unofficial lead on BassTrakk. 

Josh Douglas sits in second with the current Phoenix Boats Big Bass, a 6-pounder. Kyle Norsetter has a 5-6 in the boat, his only bass so far. Matt Robertson has a 5-8. Cole Sands has a 5-8 as well. Kyoya Fujita with a 4-pounder. Joseph Webster with a 5-pounder. Will Davis Jr with a 4-4, and the list goes on. Several of these anglers have only one fish I the boat, but it’s a good one.
